BUYER EDUCATION
Freehold vs Leasehold Property | Noida, Greater Noida & Haryana
Ownership structure • lease tenure • buyer checks
First: do not assume “99 years”
For this guide, we verified official/current records showing 90-year lease terms in examples involving Noida Authority and Greater Noida Authority land. Therefore this website will not make a blanket “99-year lease” claim.
| Point | Freehold | Leasehold |
|---|---|---|
| Basic idea | Ownership interest is generally held without a fixed lease expiry in the same way as a lease. | Rights are held for a defined lease period under a lease deed and its conditions. |
| What to check | Title/conveyance, encumbrances, land use and approvals. | Lease deed, original lessor/authority, start date, remaining term, transfer/sub-lease conditions and dues. |
| Resale | Depends on title and applicable law. | Depends on lease terms, remaining tenure and authority/document requirements. |
| Loan | Lender checks title and project/property documents. | Lender also evaluates lease tenure and lease conditions. |
Noida / Greater Noida vs Haryana
Current official records reviewed for Noida and Greater Noida show 90-year leasehold examples. Haryana is not one single tenure category: the buyer must identify the authority/project and read the allotment, conveyance or lease documents. HSVP publishes residential-plot and sale-deed related material, but that does not make every Haryana plot automatically freehold.
