AIT to build luxury flats in New Amritsar

The Amritsar Improvement Trust has unveiled plans for a major residential development in Bhai Gurdas Ji Nagar, located within the 340-acre New Amritsar township. For the first time, the Trust will construct 12 to 14-storey luxury residential flats, a significant step towards modernising the city’s housing infrastructure. A demand survey for the project began on May 13 and will continue until June 10. So far, around 650 people have submitted their applications, reflecting strong interest in the initiative.

According to the proposal, the project will include a mix of High-Income Group (HIG) Super Flats, HIG Flats, and Middle-Income Group (MIG) Flats. The HIG Super Flats, with a super area of 1,610 square feet, will feature three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a store. These flats are expected to cost Rs 58.20 lakh for the fully furnished option and Rs 45.80 lakh for the unfurnished version. For the HIG Flats, which will span 1,510 square feet and include three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a store, the prices have been set at Rs 54.90 lakh for the furnished and Rs 43.30 lakh for the unfurnished version. The MIG Flats, offering two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a store in a 1,310 square feet layout, are estimated to cost Rs 49.50 lakh for fully furnished and Rs 39.50 lakh for unfurnished. The demand survey fee is Rs 15,000 for HIG categories and Rs 10,000 for the MIG category.

The residential project will be developed on 8.14-acre site and promises to provide affordable luxury living to city residents. These high-rise flats will come with an array of modern amenities, including earthquake-resistant construction, uninterrupted water supply and power backup, high-speed elevators, broadband connectivity and CCTV surveillance. Residents will also have access to landscaped lawns, jogging tracks, balconies with every bedroom, UPVC windows, top-tier bathroom and kitchen fittings. The Trust also plans to provide facilities such as EV charging stations, rainwater harvesting systems, a clubhouse with a swimming pool, gym, spa, business centre, creche, café, housekeeping services and a shopping centre at the doorstep.

Chairman, Amritsar Improvement Trust, Karamjit Singh Rintu emphasised that this is the first time Amritsar will witness the development of such high-rise luxury flats at affordable prices. The project aims to balance modern living with open green spaces, allocating only 30 per cent of the land for construction while preserving 70 per cent as open area. The entry road to the residential complex will be 100 feet wide, while the commercial complex will have an 80-foot-wide entrance.
