GMADA Eco City Project

How GMADA planned, allotted and is expanding Eco City Township in New Chandigarh.

GMADA Eco City Project

The Greater Mohali Area Development Authority (GMADA) is the Punjab government body that plans urban estates in the Greater Mohali region. The Eco City project is its plotted township in New Chandigarh, and the main reason Mullanpur turned from a village into one of the Tricity's planned growth areas.

This page focuses on the project history and the way GMADA schemes work, so you can read any Eco City listing or news report with the right context.

Project timeline

How a GMADA scheme works

GMADA announces a scheme with a brochure that lists plot sizes, rates, the earnest money, payment schedule and the eligibility rules. Residential plots are normally allotted by a public draw of lots, while commercial sites are sold by auction. Successful applicants receive a letter of intent and then an allotment letter, pay instalments as scheduled, and receive possession once the area is ready. Later, the owner can transfer the plot with GMADA's permission.

Every document in this chain is issued by GMADA, which is why it is the final reference for any Eco City purchase.

Planned, not always delivered

GMADA's official material describes planned development and historical spending, but it does not by itself confirm that every facility is complete today. The New Chandigarh plan includes a road grid, parks, a Medicity, an Education City and a proposed transport terminal. Visit the site and confirm which roads and services already reach the plot you are considering. See planned amenities and the master plan.
