In view of the second wave of Covid-19 that had forced all business activities to shut once again, the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has extended the last date for making interest-free payment of the cost of flats by allottees of the 2021 Housing Scheme to 31 August. However, the relaxation is not applicable for allottees of Dwarka Sector 16-B flats, news agency PTI quoted officials as saying. The last date for interest-free payment was 29 June earlier, except for the allottees of Dwarka Sector 16-B. The 2021 Housing Scheme was launched on 2 January. The last DDA housing scheme was launched in March 2019, offering nearly 18,000 flats under four categories -- 488 (HIG), 1,555 (MIG), 8,383 (LIG) and 7,496 (EWS).
