Corrigendum regarding Public notice regarding Eco City-3 Land pooling plot Size option.

Overview of the Corrigendum

The Land Acquisition Collector, Department of Housing and Urban Development, PUDA Bhawan, Sector 62, S.A.S. Nagar has issued a corrigendum to the earlier public notice concerning the Eco City-3 Land Pooling Scheme. The original public notice was published on: 4 March 2026 The corrigendum makes a specific change for landowners having 7 Kanal of acquired land who choose: Option B – Residential + Commercial All other terms and conditions of the earlier notice remain unchanged.

What Has Been Changed?

For a landowner with 7 Kanal of acquired land opting for Option B, the revised entitlement is:

• 1 residential plot of 500 sq. yd.
• 2 residential plots of 300 sq. yd. each
• 1 commercial plot of 100 sq. yd.

Therefore, the corrected combination is: 500 sq. yd. Residential + 300 sq. yd. Residential + 300 sq. yd. Residential + 100 sq. yd. Commercial

What Was the Earlier Entitlement?

The earlier public notice had shown the following combination for 7 Kanal under Option B:

• 1 residential plot of 500 sq. yd.
• 1 residential plot of 300 sq. yd.
• 1 residential plot of 200 sq. yd.
• 1 commercial plot of 100 sq. yd.

The corrigendum replaces the 200 sq. yd. residential plot with an additional 300 sq. yd. residential plot.

What Is the Revised Difference?

Earlier, the residential component totalled: 500 + 300 + 200 = 1,000 sq. yd. Under the corrigendum, the residential component becomes: 500 + 300 + 300 = 1,100 sq. yd. The commercial entitlement remains unchanged at: 100 sq. yd. This means the corrigendum changes both the plot configuration and the total residential plot area for this particular 7 Kanal Option B category.

Who Is Affected by This Corrigendum?

This correction applies specifically to landowners who:

• have 7 Kanal of acquired land under Eco City-3
• opt for Option B – Residential + Commercial

The notice does not state that other landholding categories or other Land Pooling options have been changed.

Do Other Terms of the Scheme Change?

No. The corrigendum clearly states that: all other terms and conditions remain unchanged. It should therefore be treated as a specific correction to the 7 Kanal Option B entitlement, not as a complete revision of the Eco City-3 Land Pooling Scheme.
