Hero Realty acquires 100 acres in Sector 22D for a plotted township on Yamuna Expressway

Hero Realty has closed a deal for a 100-acre land parcel in Sector 22D along the Yamuna Expressway in Greater Noida, and plans to develop it as a residential plotted township under the name Hero Homes Yamuna Expressway. The land acquisition surfaced in August 2026, and the project is now at the pre-registration stage, with construction yet to begin.

The township is being positioned as a plotted development rather than an apartment project, giving buyers the option to plan and build a home on their own plot. The site lies within the Yamuna Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) development zone, one of the fastest-expanding growth corridors in the Noida region. For readers following the Yamuna Expressway belt, the scheme adds a large new residential layer to a stretch that is already seeing infrastructure investment.

Project details and planned plot sizes

Hero Homes Yamuna Expressway is planned as a residential plotted development on the Sector 22D site. The preliminary plot bands under consideration are 100 to 150 square yards, 200 to 250 square yards and 300 to 400 square yards, giving the township a range of plot sizes for different types of buyers. A separate project website has indicated plots from 150 square yards onwards, and the final plot inventory will be set out as the layout is finalised.

The planned amenities centre on a gated-community format, with landscaped areas, green spaces and internal roads. These features describe the intended character of the township and will be detailed further as the layout and approvals progress.

• Project type: residential plotted development
• Location: Sector 22D, Yamuna Expressway, Greater Noida, Gautam Buddha Nagar, Uttar Pradesh
• Land parcel: 100 acres
• Planned plot bands: 100 to 150, 200 to 250 and 300 to 400 square yards

A property research listing has put the wider Sector 22D locality's average asking price at around Rs 10,815 per square foot, offering a general benchmark for the area. Pricing for Hero Homes Yamuna Expressway will be shared by the developer as the project moves forward.

Location and connectivity

The township is anchored by the Yamuna Expressway, which provides the principal road link for the corridor and connects Greater Noida with the wider region. Noida International Airport at Jewar, Phase I of which was inaugurated on 28 March 2026, began commercial flight operations on 15 June 2026, bringing air connectivity much closer to the Yamuna Expressway belt. The corridor also hosts the Buddh International Circuit and the planned sports city, and the proposed Film City is identified by YEIDA as a future regional destination.

Regional infrastructure in the area includes the planned Eastern Peripheral Expressway and dedicated freight corridors. The wider Sector 22D area is served by schools such as Gaurs International School and Narayana Public School, and by higher education institutions including Noida International University and Gautam Buddha University, along with hospitals in the surrounding area. Residents of the township will be able to draw on these institutions as the area develops.

The developer's track record

Hero Homes is the flagship brand of Hero Realty Private Limited, part of Hero Enterprise, and the company traces its origins to 2006. The developer reports roughly 150 acres of residential townships and 230 acres of industrial parks developed in Haridwar, around 6 million square feet under development across Ludhiana, Mohali and Gurugram, and more than 2,500 customers served.

Officially listed delivered projects include Gharaunda and Haridwar Greens in Haridwar, Hero Homes Mohali Phase I, Hero Homes Ludhiana, Alaknanda Plots in Haridwar and Ganga Greens in Haridwar. Hero Realty has also stated that it received a 2023 award for Best Township Project of India under 200 acres. The Greater Noida township marks the company's move into the Yamuna Expressway corridor, where it will build on experience gained in plotted and township developments across north India. Its earlier work in Greater Noida includes Hero Yamuna Expressway, which is listed on this website.

What comes next

The project is currently at the pre-registration stage, and the next milestones will be registration with the Uttar Pradesh Real Estate Regulatory Authority, the release of a sanctioned layout and the announcement of booking details. Construction has not yet begun, so the timeline for development will become clearer as approvals are secured.
