"The estimated launch value of the residential plots in 10 tier I-II cities between 2022 and 2025 (May) is approximately Rs 2.44 lakh crore," PropEquity Founder and CEO Samir Jasuja said in a statement on Tuesday.
The demand for residential plots has risen in the past few years as this asset class is more liquid with potential of higher appreciation than apartments, he added.

Jasuja said many prospective customers prefer plots as they desire to customise their living space.
As per the data, the supply of residential plots in these 10 cities fell 23 per cent annually in 2024 to 1,26,556 plots from 1,63,529 plots in the preceding year.
PropEquity said 45,591 residential plots have been launched during the the first five months of 2025.
"For developers, plots generate quick cash flow as they involve faster sales and less upfront investment as compared to apartments," the company said.
The weighted average launch price of residential plots in these 10 cities rose 27 per cent annually in 2024 to Rs 3,679 per sq ft, which translates to Rs 33,111 per square yard and Rs 39,586 per square metre.
Commenting on the report, Kirthi Chilukuri, Founder and MD of Stonecraft Group, said, "The surge in plotted development across India's cities reflects a growing desire among people for ownership and personalisation."
Yashank Wason, Managing Director, Royal Green Realty, said, "Indore's rise among the top three plotted development markets is a testament to its evolution into a dynamic real estate destination."
Sam Chopra, President and Country Head, eXp Realty India, said the launch of 4.7 lakh plots in these 10 cities in just over three years reflects a decisive shift in buyer behaviour, from built-up units to land ownership. PTI

Amid objections, Standing Committee sends back Bawana waste-to-energy plant proposal for amendments

Even as the Union Environment Ministry gave an environmental clearance (EC) to a proposed Waste-to-Energy Plant (WTE) in Bawana last month, the proposal to set up the plant in Narela has been sent back to the Department of Environment Management Services (DEMS) of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) on Wednesday for a revisit. The decision was taken at the Standing Committee meeting on Wednesday amid staunch opposition against the project from the local residents. Following the decision by the Standing Committee at its second meeting since it was recently constituted, the item will be listed again for reconsideration after the DEMS makes amendments to the proposal, said officials. An official of the Delhi Environment department said, 'The MCD is authorised to take such an action. The role of our department is to grant NOCs.' The Centre's clearance to the project came on June 20 and was made public by the Delhi Pollution Control Committee earlier this month. The EC was granted based on standard and specific conditions applicable to thermal power projects, including compliance with the Environment Impact Assessment Notification, 2006. The 15-acre plot where the proposed plant is to be developed was allotted by the civic body in February under a concession agreement, the Environment Clearance report stated. The 30-megawatt plant is to be developed under a public-private partnership with Jindal Urban Waste Management (Bawana) Limited in Sector 5 of the Bawana Industrial Area. However, residents have been protesting against the waste-to-energy plant facility to be set up at a cost of Rs 660 crore. They have expressed concerns over worsening of air quality, health risks, and handling of waste. But in the EC report in response to the concerns raised, the firm stated that an 'Ambient Air Quality Monitoring System will be installed in the plant to track pollution levels and ensure compliance with environmental regulations…' This is the fifth plant that is set to come up in the city. There are four other WTE plants in the city — Okhla, Ghazipur, Tehkhand and Narela. Meanwhile, the Standing Committee also passed a proposal for the collection and transportation of municipal solid waste under the Central Zone at the meeting. According to the proposal, the civic body has decided to prepare a fresh tender document for a short period of six months, till the main tender is finalised. The Committee has also cleared a proposal to set up a dung processing plant at the Ghazipur slaughterhouse. Chairperson Satya Sharma passed the proposal 'One Road – One Day.' 'Under the plan, one major road in each zone of the MCD will undergo a complete makeover every day. This will include road repair, cleaning and improvement of footpaths, repair of signage, restoration of streetlights, removal of illegal encroachments, pruning of trees, and beautification efforts,' Sharma said. An automated multilevel puzzle parking facility will be constructed at Bharat Darshan Park (Punjabi Bagh). Sharma also said that no meat shops will be operated within a 100-meter radius of schools and religious places. Shops running illegally or without valid licences will be sealed with immediate effect, he said. The members raised issues of waterlogging in the Capital, as well as cases of rising dog bites.
