A 7% Kisan Kota plot is a residential plot allotted by YEIDA to a farmer as compensation for land acquired for the Yamuna Expressway corridor. The farmer receives 7% of the surrendered land back as a developed residential plot with clear title.
For a first-time buyer, this is the most misunderstood asset on the corridor. Here is what you actually need to know.
Why Kisan Kota Plots Exist
When YEIDA acquires farmland to build a sector, the landowner gets two forms of compensation. The first is cash. The second is a portion of the acquired land returned as a developed plot.
The percentage has changed over time. It was 5% in early schemes, then 6%, and is now commonly 7% for Yamuna Authority allotments.
Which Sectors Have Kisan Kota Plots
Registered Kisan Kota plots are concentrated in Sectors 17, 18, 20, and 22E. Unregistered Kisan Kota plots are available in Sectors 20, 29, 32, 33, 34, 8, 10, and 15.
The Two-Stage Registry Process
Kisan Kota plots are transferred in two steps. First, registry in the farmer's name. Second, Transfer Memorandum (TM) plus buyer registry. The full cycle takes 2 to 3 years.
Why Kisan Kota Plots Outperformed Authority Plots
Kisan Kota plots bought unregistered at ₹7,000 per sqm in 2020 now trade as registered units at ₹85,000 to ₹1,00,000 per sqm. That is a return of 1,100% to 1,300% in six years. Authority plots returned 536% over the same period.
Registered vs Unregistered Kisan Kota
Registered plots trade at ₹60,000 to ₹1,00,000 per sqm. Unregistered plots trade at ₹35,000 to ₹45,000 per sqm.
