DTCP invites bids to build 3 lakh affordable homes in Gurgaon

The Department of Town and Country Planning (DTCP) has invited fresh applications for licences to build over 3 lakh affordable housing units in Gurgaon. Haryana amended its Affordable Housing Policy 2013 in October 2017, to extend an existing cap of 300 acre in Gurgaon district to 1,935 acre. Based on the earlier cap, DTCP had issued affordable housing licences over 331 acres, on which around 46,000 units are at different stages of completion, in sectors along Northern Peripheral Road (NPR), also known as Dwarka expressway, and Southern Peripheral Road (SPR).
