Noida Sports City Revised Layouts Submitted by Logix, 3C and ATS

Noida: Three developers have submitted revised layout plans for their long-delayed Sports City projects in Noida, bringing the projects a step closer to fresh approvals and, eventually, flat registrations and occupancy certificates.

Logix Infra Developers has submitted the revised layout for its Sports City project in Sector 150, while 3C Green Construction has submitted its plan for Sectors 78-79 and ATS Homes for Sector 152.

The Noida Authority has uploaded the revised layouts on its website and invited public objections and suggestions for 15 days. The authority will consider the feedback before deciding on the final layouts.

For homebuyers, the significance is straightforward. Once the revised layouts are approved and subsequent permissions are processed, projects with completed housing units could move towards occupancy certificates and flat registries.

Three Sports City Projects Move Into Public Review

The three revised layouts cover large parcels of land.

The proposals broadly retain the original Sports City concept, with a majority of the land earmarked for sporting facilities rather than residential or commercial development.

Logix's proposed sports infrastructure includes tennis courts, an indoor multipurpose sports hall, swimming facilities, a cricket academy, golf facilities and a medicine centre.

The 3C proposal follows the same 70:28:2 land-use division. ATS has proposed 70% for sports facilities, 26% for residential development and 4% for commercial activity.

Why the Revised Layouts Matter to Homebuyers

The layout approval is not the same as an occupancy certificate or registry permission.

However, it is an important step because the Noida Authority has linked approval of the revised layouts with the subsequent processing of building maps, OCs and registries.

Officials have said that once objections and suggestions are addressed and the layouts are approved, the authority will begin processing occupancy certificates for ready housing projects and permissions for flat registries.

That could be particularly relevant for buyers who have completed or substantially completed homes but have remained caught in the wider regulatory dispute around Sports City.

AquireAcres has previously covered how the Supreme Court allowed conditional occupancy certificates for six Godrej Nest towers in Sector 150, providing project-specific relief to more than 400 buyers.

Sports City Projects Were Frozen in 2021

The current process follows years of regulatory uncertainty.

In January 2021, the Noida Authority's board stopped map-related approvals, revisions, revalidation and occupancy-related approvals for Sports City projects after concerns over violations and the implementation of the original scheme.

The Sports City concept itself dates back to the mid-2000s. Noida Authority introduced the scheme with the aim of creating large sports-focused developments, with facilities intended to support major sporting events.

Four major Sports City schemes were eventually allotted across Noida, including projects in Sectors 78-79-101, 150 and 152. Collectively, the allotted land covered around 798 acres, with 70% originally earmarked for sports facilities.

The scheme subsequently came under scrutiny after a CAG audit raised questions about the implementation of the Sports City model, including the development of housing ahead of the promised sports infrastructure.

Supreme Court Order Opened a Route for Revival

The legal situation changed after developers challenged the restrictions in court.

On November 24, 2025, the Supreme Court passed orders in matters involving Sports City projects, providing a route for revised plans and subsequent approvals subject to compliance with the applicable conditions.

In the Logix-related proceedings, the Supreme Court directed developers to submit proposals and said appropriate action would follow. The court's broader framework required revised master plans to remain consistent with the original Sports City scheme and applicable Noida rules.

In related proceedings concerning Sports City projects, the court also set conditions around revised master plans, outstanding dues and subsequent building-plan approvals.

The Noida Authority subsequently moved towards implementing the revised framework.

The broader regulatory framework is also evolving, with Uttar Pradesh introducing changes aimed at simplifying RERA-related project approvals and reducing procedural delays. 

What Is Proposed Under the New Layouts?

The revised proposals are intended to bring the individual Sports City projects back within the planning framework.

For Logix, 70% of the nearly 9.87 lakh-square-metre site is proposed for sports facilities. The project includes multiple outdoor and indoor sports facilities, including tennis, swimming, cricket and golf-related infrastructure.

3C's 6.63 lakh-square-metre parcel follows the same broad 70% sports, 28% group housing and 2% commercial model.

ATS's 5.06 lakh-square-metre site proposes 70% sports facilities, with the remaining land divided between residential and commercial uses.

The final layouts are not yet approved. Public feedback is currently part of the process.

Around 20,000 Buyers Could Benefit

The revised layouts are significant for a large number of homebuyers who have been waiting for regulatory approvals.

Noida Authority officials have put the immediate potential benefit at around 20,000 homebuyers, particularly through the eventual processing of registries and occupancy certificates.

The wider Sports City developments involve more housing stock, but the exact number of buyers affected will depend on the project and the approvals that follow.

For buyers, the next milestones are therefore more important than the layout submission alone: final approval after the objection period, building-map permissions, occupancy certificates for eligible completed towers and registry permissions.

What Happens Next?

The immediate step is the 15-day public consultation period.

The Noida Authority will review the objections and suggestions received before moving towards approval of the revised layouts. Once approved, developers can proceed with the next stages of building-map and project approvals in accordance with the applicable conditions.

Buyers waiting for registration can also refer to AquireAcres' coverage of efforts to speed up flat registrations in Noida and the administrative steps involved. 

For completed housing projects, the eventual issuance of OCs and registry permissions could provide the most tangible relief to buyers.

However, the revised layouts do not mean that every Sports City project will receive an OC or registry immediately. Each project and completed tower will still have to meet the relevant approval and compliance requirements.

For buyers tracking the process, the distinction matters: layout approval is a regulatory step, not the final handover or registry itself.

The latest development nevertheless moves Logix, 3C and ATS projects further along the approval route after years of uncertainty.
