LDA City Lahore: 6th Balloting & File Market Update

LDA City Lahore continues to draw significant attention from property buyers and investors across the market. With ongoing developmental milestones, expanding land possession, and shifting market dynamics, staying informed about sector allocations and balloting schedules is essential for anyone holding or considering files in this mega housing scheme.

The spotlight now rests on the upcoming 6th balloting, which is expected to occur next year rather than in the current calendar. Unlike earlier rounds that focused on Jinnah Sector, this cycle targets Iqbal Sector Phase 1. Primary blocks slated for allocation include Block AA, Block BB, and Block CC, while Block EE and Block FF are increasingly likely candidates following recent commercial plot auctions and a steady influx of new file volumes.

As the volume of active files rises, the housing scheme expands plot allocations across diverse blocks. This ensures that file holders receive specific plot numbers on the official map as development progresses through the designated sectors.

On‑ground land acquisition underscores the project’s momentum. Substantial parcels have been secured near key landmarks, including areas close to Sharif Medical City, Block TT, Block SS, and the expansive 980‑kanal Fatima Jinnah Park. Commuters traveling from the canal route toward the LDA City interchange or the Lake City route can observe visible soil mounds on both sides of the road—clear indicators that these lands are now under LDA City’s possession.

For file holders concerned about legitimacy, each authentic LDA City file is backed by actual land acquisition, representing a genuine land cost. Initial file transactions cover the basic land price, while development charges are determined and levied by the Lahore Development Authority at later stages.

The billing pattern for development charges follows distinct phases. The first and second balloting cycles applied charges together, and the third and fourth rounds were combined as well. After the 5th balloting, charges have not yet been imposed. Once the 6th balloting concludes, it is anticipated that development charges for both the 5th and 6th allocations will be issued collectively.

Market trading rates for residential files have shown an upward trend recently. High transfer activity and a tightening supply of available files have lifted price brackets. Current prevailing rates hover around 31 to 31.25 lac for 5‑marla files, 53 to 53.25 lac for 10‑marla files, and roughly 93.50 lac for 1‑kanal files. As demand and transfer volumes adjust ahead of the 6th balloting, these figures reflect the evolving baseline of the Iqbal Sector file market.
