The date and time of the e-auction will be announced separately. Four plots have been earmarked for nursing homes in Chi-3 sector and one in Chi-4 sector, three for higher secondary schools in Knowledge Park 5 sector and one in XU-II sector, while one plot for a hospital in Omicron-I sector, said officials.

Registration for the scheme will start this Thursday and close on December 2.

The institutional plot scheme assumes significance as Greater Noida positions itself to benefit from the development of Noida International Airport.
With the airport driving investments in manufacturing, logistics, commercial activities and real estate, the demand for supporting social infrastructure, particularly healthcare and education, is also likely to grow, said officials.
