DHA’s 3rd-ballot price list, to the rupee, from the application form dated 14 August 2026. The down payment is 20% (form clause 7). Property-portal reports say the first two rounds asked 15%; we found no DHA document with that figure, and some pages still quote it as current.

Resale is a different number. DHA’s list is the ballot price. A file or plot bought from its holder costs the seller’s asking price, usually written as DHA’s plan price plus an “own”. What 502 ads asked on 8 October 2026.

The plot table these prices sit inside
Every size and count on this page traces back to the plot-typology table on the master plan sheet (a dealer-circulated copy whose totals match the Pak-EPA assessment) — the CDA/DHA 55/45 split by plot size, apartments and commercial footprints, and the land-use analysis behind the residential total of 6,990.
From the master plan sheet, a dealer-circulated copy. The full master plan · CDA/DHA share, plot by plot.
What the price list does not include
This is the section that changes budgets, and it is the one most often left off.
1. DHA charges and government taxes
The form’s own footnote reads: “Prices are Exclusive of Applicable DHA Charges & Government Taxes.” DHA has not published a fee schedule for this project that we could find, and we are not going to invent one — ask DHA directly for the current figure for your size. On taxes, the Finance Act 2026 set the buyer’s advance tax under section 236K at a flat 1.25% for filers. On a 1 Kanal lump sum that alone is roughly PKR 910,960. The tax page has the working.
2. The category premium — up to 15%
Clause 13: a premium applies to preferred categories such as corner, boulevard and park-facing plots. Typically 10% for a single category, and a maximum 15% combined where a plot qualifies for more than one. The management decides the category, at its sole discretion. Here is what that does to the lump-sum prices:
| Plot | List lump sum | +10% (one category) | +15% (multiple) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 Marla | PKR 21,434,375 | PKR 23,577,812 | PKR 24,649,531 |
| 10 Marla | PKR 42,011,375 | PKR 46,212,512 | PKR 48,313,081 |
| 1 Kanal | PKR 72,876,875 | PKR 80,164,562 | PKR 83,808,406 |
On a 1 Kanal, a corner allocation is worth more than PKR 7 million. That is not a rounding error, and it is the reason we describe the published price as a floor rather than a price.
3. The processing fee, which you lose either way
PKR 10,000 for a 5 Marla, 15,000 for a 10 Marla, 20,000 for a 1 Kanal; 30,000 to 60,000 on commercial. Clause 3 makes it non-refundable, non-adjustable and non-transferable, and the management may reject any application at its sole discretion without giving a reason — and the fee is still forfeited. Since clause 1 puts no cap on how many applications one person may submit, people improve their ballot odds by applying several times. Each attempt costs another fee that does not come back.
Advance tax at transfer — 236K for the buyer, 236C for the seller — is set out with the rupee amounts for each size on the transfer page.
Price history: round 1 to the 3rd ballot
DHA has charged three different prices for the same three sizes. Only the 3rd-round schedule is still on DHA’s own form; the earlier two survive as dealer copies, so they are labelled that way.
| Round | Drawn | 5 Marla lump sum | 10 Marla | 1 Kanal | Down payment | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Round 1 (launch) | 24 February 2025 | PKR 12,000,000 | 22,000,000 | 42,000,000 | 15% | dealer-published copies of DHA’s round-1 schedule (Sky Marketing, 12 February 2025; Milkiyat tracker, 9 October 2026) |
| Round 2 | 20 November 2025 | PKR 15,500,000 | 30,000,000 | 56,000,000 | 15% | dealer-published copies (Amanah Builders, 25 April 2026; Milkiyat tracker, 9 October 2026) |
| Round 3 (Launch III) | 15 September 2026 | PKR 21,434,375 | 42,011,375 | 72,876,875 | 20% | DHA application form dated 14 August 2026; DHA’s own price images on the project portal |
From round 1 to round 3 the lump sums rose roughly 79%, 91% and 74% in nineteen months, and the down payment went from 15% to 20%. Round 2 sat about 30% above round 1, so most of the rise came in the first year. Per square yard, the 3rd-round lump sums work out at PKR 171,475 (5 Marla), 168,046 (10 Marla) and 145,754 (1 Kanal): the small plot is the dearest per yard.
These are allotment prices: what DHA chose to charge in each round, not what plots have changed hands at. Recorded resale prices are not published. For a real read, have three dealers quote the same plot and ask each for a recent completed transfer. Every round, with dates.
Plot sizes in square feet
| Plot | Dimensions | Sq ft | Sq yd | Sq m |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 Marla | 25 × 45 ft | 1,125 | 125 | 104.5 |
| 10 Marla | 35 × 65 ft | 2,275 | 253 | 211.4 |
| 1 Kanal | 50 × 90 ft | 4,500 | 500 | 418.1 |
DHA’s plot sizes use a 225 sq ft marla, 20 to a 4,500 sq ft kanal. On that measure the 5 Marla and 1 Kanal plots are exact; the 10 Marla plot, 35 × 65 ft, is 2,275 sq ft, slightly more than the 250 sq yd (2,250 sq ft) DHA quotes. Older Punjab revenue records use a larger 272.25 sq ft marla, which is why a document’s square feet and marla sometimes fail to reconcile.
