This report pulls together three things Vidastu already publishes separately — the YEIDA price-history review, the sector-by-sector buyer's guide, and the airport timeline — into one chart-led summary, so an investor comparing sectors or timing a decision has the shape of the whole corridor in front of them at once. Nothing here is new research; it's the same dated, sourced facts, restructured as three charts, a data table, and full citations. For each named project's current booking status, rather than the trend-level view here, see our corridor live index.

YEIDA Corridor Investment Report 2026
Executive summary
Three sourced charts, one page: YEIDA's own official land rate rose roughly 46–49% between FY2021-22 and FY2024, then a further ~40% between FY2024 and the current FY2026 RPS-10/2026 scheme (₹25,900 → ₹36,260/sqm) — three confirmed data points in eight years; named developer activity is heavily concentrated, with 6 of the 8 corridor projects tracked across Sectors 22D, 22A, 18 and 20 in this review sitting in Sector 22D alone; and the corridor's defining catalyst — Noida International Airport — opened for commercial flights on 15 June 2026, roughly four years later than its original 2022 target, which is the base rate every other "imminent" claim on this corridor should be measured against.
Every figure below carries a Confirmed, Reported or Gap tag and a dated source. Where a percentage is our own arithmetic rather than a number a document states directly, we say so.

Confirmed rate (dashed line = calculated span, not literal data)
No rate recovered — gap
Methodology — All three anchors are dated, primary-source YEIDA documents: the FY2021-22 office order (YEA/Vitt/209/2021), the FY2024 residential-plots brochure (scheme RPS-08/2024, dated 5 Jul 2024), and the current FY2026 scheme brochure (RPS-10/2026, dated 4 Apr 2026). The dashed line is our own visual interpolation between known points, not a claim about what happened in between; the five unlabelled years are named gaps because no dated official rate was found for them in this review, not because nothing changed. The +46–49% figure is our own arithmetic (₹17,800→₹25,900 = 45.5%; ₹17,400→₹25,900 = 48.9%); the +~40% figure is our own arithmetic (₹25,900→₹36,260 = 40.0%) — both compare a base or residual-plot scheme premium to a later one, a proxy for corridor movement, not a precise like-for-like. YEIDA's ₹/sqm land-allotment rate is a different unit and market layer from a developer's ₹/sqft resale or launch price; the two should never be blended into one "price history." Full detail and every named gap: YEIDA Corridor Price History 2019–2026.
Chart 02 · Market activity
Named developer projects, by sector
Every named private-developer project recovered in our sector-by-sector review, split by RERA status. A project count is a measure of market activity, not a price or quality signal.

0 named projects — gap
Methodology — "Named" means the project appears with a specific name, and either a UP RERA registration number or an explicit pre-launch/no-RERA status, in Vidastu's own published sector guide. It is a count of market activity, not a ranking of quality, price or return — a sector with zero named projects here may simply be outside this review's source set, not empty of activity. Verify any project's live RERA status directly at up-rera.in before treating a "RERA approved" claim as fact. Full project-by-project detail: YEIDA Sector-by-Sector Buyer's Guide.
Chart 03 · Corridor timeline
Confirmed corridor milestones, 2012–2026
Dated, sourced events only — no "expected" or "imminent" claims. Notice how compressed the last seven months are against the prior thirteen years.
Pattern 8 of these 13 confirmed events fall inside the last seven months (Aug 2025–Jun 2026) — after thirteen comparatively quiet years on the record. That compression is itself worth sitting with before treating any single recent event as the whole story.

Methodology — Every entry above is a dated fact from a named, checkable source — no "expected," "upcoming" or "proposed" claim is plotted as if it already happened. Notably, the airport itself was originally slated for 2022 and opened roughly four years late; that is direct, citable evidence that past "imminent" timelines on this corridor have repeatedly failed, and a caution against treating any of the newer 2025–2026 entries above as guaranteed to hold their own pace. Full breakdown of confirmed-vs-hype airport claims: Noida Airport Timeline.
Data tables — the accessible twin
Every value plotted above, in plain table form, for screen readers and quick copy-paste.
Table A — YEIDA allotment rate by year

| FY2026 | ₹36,260/sqm (current allotment scheme) | Confirmed, current | RPS-10/2026 scheme brochure, dated 4 Apr 2026 |
Calculated rise across the confirmed points: +45.5% (₹17,800→₹25,900) to +48.9% (₹17,400→₹25,900) from 2021 to 2024, rounded to "+46–49%" above; then +40.0% (₹25,900→₹36,260) from 2024 to 2026 — all our own arithmetic.
Table B — Named developer projects by sector

| 18 | — | Gap | 0 named private projects recovered |
| 20 | — | Gap | 0 named private projects recovered |
"Pre-launch" and "Gap" both mean no RERA number was found — the first is a developer-disclosed pre-launch status, the second is an absence in our source set. Neither should be read as "nothing exists there."

All thirteen entries are tagged Confirmed — this timeline deliberately excludes "expected," "upcoming" or "proposed" claims (Film City, the finished RRTS line) so it isn't confused with a delivery guarantee.
What this report does not claim
Hype This is not a price prediction. The +46–49%, +~40% and +37–38% figures above describe what already happened, calculated from confirmed documents — not a forecast of what happens next. Any pitch using this report's numbers to promise a specific future return is misusing it.
Hype Grey-market plot-price folklore is excluded entirely. Community forum threads on this corridor swing from "₹30,000/sqm in ten years" to "a ghost city for 40 years" within the same thread, with no named, checkable transaction behind either extreme. None of it appears in the charts or tables above.
Gap Sectors 18 and 20 are under-covered, not empty. Zero named private projects there reflects the limits of this review's source set, not a claim that nothing is being built.
For the registration-side view of the same period — which projects actually entered the UP-RERA register in H1 2026 and where — read this report alongside our UP-RERA H1-2026 report for Noida & Ghaziabad.
FAQ
What is the single biggest confirmed number in this report?
Sector 22D holds 6 named developer projects, all now RERA-registered (Gaur Chrysalis, Gaur Alaris — formerly Gaur Plume, Eldeco Echoes of Eden, ACE Terra, ACE Edit, ACE YXP) — versus 2 in Sector 22A and 0 named private projects recovered in Sectors 18 or 20 in this review.
How much has YEIDA's official land rate actually risen?
Roughly 46–49% from ₹17,800–17,400/sqm (FY2021-22 office order) to ₹25,900/sqm (FY2024 RPS-08/2024 scheme premium), then a further ~40% to ₹36,260/sqm under the current RPS-10/2026 scheme (brochure dated 4 April 2026) — three dated, primary-source rates recovered across an eight-year window. The percentage figures are our own calculation, not numbers either document states directly, and 2019, 2020, 2022, 2023 and 2025 remain confirmed gaps.
Is Gaur Plume the same project as Gaur Chrysalis?
No. Gaur Chrysalis Phase 1 is RERA-registered (UPRERAPRJ622344/11/2025), launched 4 November 2025, and is reported sold out. Gaur Plume — now RERA-registered as Gaur Alaris (UPRERAPRJ950965/07/2026) — is Gaursons' separate, later phase in the same sector. The two RERA numbers must not be confused.
Why does the allotment-rate chart show gaps instead of a smooth line?
Because that is what the public record actually shows. Only FY2021-22 and FY2024 have a dated, primary-source YEIDA rate behind them; YEIDA's own live Allotment Rates page was functionally empty when last checked. Drawing a smooth eight-year trend line through six unconfirmed years would misrepresent the record, so this report marks those years as named gaps instead.
How fast did prices move after Gaur Chrysalis launched?
The developer's own Price List, effective 22 December 2025, set the Basic Sales Price at ₹11,000/sqft plus PLCs — up from the reported ₹8,000–7,999/sqft launch price on 4 November 2025. That is roughly a 37–38% rise in about seven weeks, by our own calculation, on a Phase 1 that is now reported sold out.
