The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has extended the payment deadline for flats allotted under the Towering Heights project in Karkardooma under both the 2025 e-auction and 2026 first come first served housing scheme to June 30, 2026.

In a circular dated April 30, 2026, DDA said it can take 30 to 45 days for getting all statutory approvals and that many allottees have requested additional time as the date of physical possession of the property is likely to spill over beyond the scheduled period of July, 2026.

According to a report by Hindustan Times, the project offered 1,026 premium 2BHK apartments through e-auction, with base reserve prices ranging from Rs 1.8 crore to Rs 3.1 crore.


DDA said in the circular: “Due to the likelihood that for obtaining all statutory approvals, it will take 30-45 days’ time from the date of physical completion of the project and owing to representation from allottees for grant of additional days in light of the likely spilling over of the project beyond the scheduled period of July 2026, it is hereby informed that the last date for payment of the demanded amount has been extended up to June 30,” the circular said.

DDA also said that no interest will be charged in all the cases of both the housing schemes where demand was falling due on or before March 31, 2026 and which was extended up to April 30, 2026. Till June 30, 2026, the amount can be paid without interest. Thereafter, up to July 30, 2026, payment can be made with interest at the rate of 10% on the amount.

DDA also said that no further extension will be granted beyond July 30, 2026.
