House Construction in YEIDA Sector 18 — for Plot Owners & New RPS-10 Allottees
YEIDA Sector 18 is a large, mixed residential-and-commercial sector on the Yamuna Expressway, in the Noida International Airport (Jewar) growth corridor. With the new RPS-10/2026 scheme adding fresh Sector 18 allottees — and YEIDA’s common construction deadline now extended to 31 December 2026 — many owners here need to start building now. Vidastu builds turnkey homes and handles YEIDA map approval, renovation and interiors for Sector 18 plot owners.
What Sector 18 actually is
Sector 18 is one of YEIDA’s larger plotted sectors, and it is mixed-use — residential plots sit alongside planned commercial and civic land. Together with neighbouring Sector 20, the two sectors are reported to hold around 21,000 planned residential plots, with 60 m and 100 m arterial roads under construction to serve them. About 25 acres are reported earmarked for a commercial and entertainment zone — malls, 3–5 star hotels and schools — so day-to-day amenities are being built into the sector itself rather than left to neighbouring towns.
That mix matters when you build. A home here is a home in an area that is still actively developing roads and retail, near the airport and the proposed Film City — which is exactly why getting your house completed and certified early is worth doing.
A mixed-use airport sector where roads and retail are still being built — finishing your home early puts you ahead of the curve, not behind it.

Direct answer: if you win a Sector 18 plot in the RPS-10/2026 draw on 18 June 2026, you should begin map approval within weeks, not months. RPS-10/2026 offered 973 plots across Sectors 15C, 18 and 24A in the 162–290 sqm range, at a reported rate of about ₹35,000–36,260 per sqm, with a computerised draw on 18 June 2026. That creates a wave of brand-new Sector 18 owners — all of whom face YEIDA’s construction-completion clock.
The clock is the point. YEIDA requires you to complete construction and obtain a completion/occupancy certificate within about three years of possession, and the common deadline has been extended to 31 December 2026 (benefiting 10,000+ allottees). Late completion attracts an escalating annual penalty — reported at roughly 4% / 6% / 8% of the prevailing circle rate in years one, two and three (treat as reported, confirm officially). Map approval plus a clean build realistically needs 12–18 months, so the safe move is to begin early.

How much built-up area you get on a Sector 18 plot
Short answer: ground coverage and FAR are set by YEIDA byelaws and scale with plot size. RPS-10/2026 Sector 18 plots fall in the 162–290 sqm band, where coverage is generous. Use this as a planning guide and confirm the exact figures against the official byelaws and your sanctioned plan.
| Plot size (sqm) | Max ground coverage | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 200 | ~80% | Covers many smaller plots |
| 201–500 | ~75% | RPS-10 plots (162–290) sit here / just below |
| 501–1000 | ~70% | Larger independent homes |
| 1001–2000 | ~65% | — |
FAR on a typical small residential plot is around 1.8 with a height cap near 15 m — roughly “2.5 floors plus a basement.” Stilt parking is free of FAR on plots of about 112 sqm and above, and one basement is free of FAR. Dwelling-unit limits also apply (up to 2 units plus a servant quarter on plots up to 100 sqm; up to 3 on 100–500 sqm). Want the full picture with worked numbers?

Coverage/FAR per YEIDA byelaws and YEIDA-specialist sources; the exact per-size FAR grid is an official byelaws document — treat figures here as “approximately” and verify before sanction.
