The Derabassi Local Planning Area (LPA) Master Plan 2031 governs land use across the entire Derabassi LPA, a 20 km stretch south of Chandigarh on NH-7 (formerly NH-21) in SAS Nagar (Mohali) district, Punjab. Prepared by the Department of Town and Country Planning, Punjab and administered by GMADA, the plan classifies land into residential (R1–R4), industrial (general, heavy, logistics, technology and R&D), and rural-agricultural zones. This page covers the premium Derabassi Masterplan layer on 1acre, what each zone permits, the regulatory traps that catch buyers off-guard, and the corridors where this plan directly drives land value.Zone Misclassification and Unauthorized Colonies: The Biggest Risk in Derabassi
Derabassi's location on the Chandigarh–Delhi highway has made it one of the fastest-developing corridors in the Greater Mohali Region (GMR), and that speed has attracted colonies that were built first and approved never. GMADA publishes a live list of unauthorized colonies under its jurisdiction, which includes Derabassi. Brokers routinely show buyers plots in colonies that sit in agricultural or industrial zones on the master plan map, without disclosing that the land has no valid Change of Land Use (CLU) from GMADA.
The table below shows the key zone designations from the Derabassi Master Plan 2031 map (DTP SAS Nagar sketch 675/10):

Under the Punjab Apartment and Property Regulation Act (PAPRA), any colony development requires a Letter of Intent (LOI) and a formal license from GMADA before a single plot can be sold. A CLU certificate must precede that license. Before signing, ask the seller to show you the CLU drawing number and cross-reference it against the GMADA-approved colonies list at gmada.gov.in. If neither document exists, do not proceed.
Two distinct growth stories play out inside the Derabassi LPA, and the master plan treats them very differently.
The table below maps the primary corridors to their plan designation and investment context:
Corridor / Locality
Zone (Master Plan 2031)
Growth Driver
Known Risk
Haripur Hinduan / Saidpura
FEZ + Industrial (General)
Derabassi-Lalru industrial belt; existing factory units
Residential development explicitly prohibited; scattered non-compatible uses flagged in plan
Barwala Road, Saidpura
Industrial – General
Red-category industrial plots; direct link to Chandigarh-Ambala Expressway
Heavy vehicle traffic; limited social infrastructure
Mubarakpur / Mirpur
R2–R3 Residential
PR-10 proposed arterial road alignment; medium-density housing corridor
Some residential colonies pre-date road realignment; title disputes possible near PR-10 corridor
Lalru (adjacent LPA)
Industrial hub (notified 2015, DTP SAS Nagar 2249/2015)
Dedicated industrial land use plan; proximity to NH-5 (formerly NH-22), NH-72, Chandigarh-Ambala rail line
Separate LPA; buyers must verify under Lalru Land Use Plan, not Derabassi Master Plan
Gulabgarh
R3–R4
Low-density residential fringe; proximity to regional greenery
Agricultural zone patches; verify CLU status for any plotted colony
Corridor / Locality
Zone (Master Plan 2031)
Growth Driver
Known Risk
Haripur Hinduan / Saidpura
FEZ + Industrial (General)
Derabassi-Lalru industrial belt; existing factory units

Some residential colonies pre-date road realignment; title disputes possible near PR-10 corridor
Lalru (adjacent LPA)
Industrial hub (notified 2015, DTP SAS Nagar 2249/2015)
Dedicated industrial land use plan; proximity to NH-5 (formerly NH-22), NH-72, Chandigarh-Ambala rail line
Separate LPA; buyers must verify under Lalru Land Use Plan, not Derabassi Master Plan
Gulabgarh
R3–R4
Low-density residential fringe; proximity to regional greenery
Agricultural zone patches; verify CLU status for any plotted colony
The most misunderstood corridor is Lalru. It falls under a separate Land Use Plan notified in December 2015, not the Derabassi Master Plan 2031. Buyers who assume that a Lalru address falls under the same document are checking the wrong plan entirely, and brokers almost never clarify this distinction.
Anything wrong, outdated, or missing we want to hear it.
