Film City, Toy Park and Medical Device Park: What Is Actually Being Built

Film City, the Toy Park and the Medical Device Park come up constantly in talk about the Yamuna Expressway. They are at very different stages. This guide gives the status of each from YEIDA’s own pages and dated reports, and says where sources disagree. All three are industrial or institutional projects, not residential or farm land, so the last section covers what that does and does not mean for a buyer.

International Film City: Sector 21

The developer is Bayview Projects LLP, working as Bayview Bhutani Film City, a joint venture between filmmaker Boney Kapoor and Bhutani Infra. Construction World reported that the contract was awarded in June 2024 and that YEIDA handed over 230 acres for Phase 1 on 3 March 2025, at a project cost of about ₹1,500 crore (₹1,510 crore on YEIDA’s investment portal). Phase 1 is to include studios and sound stages, a film institute, production support and, later, commercial development. A June 2026 Outlook Business report said financial closure and regulatory approvals had been received, without naming the approving bodies. YEIDA officials were quoted as saying the project was “approaching the execution stage, with preparatory work already underway”, and that on-ground work was likely to begin in the coming months.

Sources differ. Phase 1 is 230 acres in the YEIDA investment portal and Construction World, but about 240 acres in the June 2026 report. Some sources describe a 1,000-acre project, while Construction World says the original 1,000 acres were revised to 230. YEIDA’s investment portal also lists a June 2025 start and a December 2026 completion, and an earlier version of this guide carried a quarter-by-quarter timeline to match. The June 2026 report, which says on-ground work was still to begin, does not fit that schedule, so we removed the timeline and show the later report. We found no YEIDA notice giving construction milestones.

Medical Device Park: Sector 28

YEIDA’s project page describes a park of 350 acres, with 195 acres (55%) for allotment and 225 planned plots in four size bands: 80 under 2,000 sq m, 107 of 2,000 to 4,000 sq m, 16 of 4,000 to 6,000 sq m and 22 of 6,000 to 14,000 sq m. The Government of India gave in-principle approval on 24 September 2021 under its Promotion of Medical Device Parks scheme, the project report was approved on 4 January 2022, and a ₹30 crore central grant has been received. YEIDA is the state implementing agency. Target segments are cancer care and radiotherapy, radiology and imaging, anaesthetics and cardiorespiratory, renal care and implantable electronic devices. The page says external development is complete and internal development (roads, drainage, sewerage) is in progress.

Counts differ. YEIDA’s project page says 124 units are allotted (undated), while the February 2026 report says 101 of 203. We cannot tell which is later or how each is counted. For the rest of Sector 28, see our guide to the YEIDA data centre park.

Toy Park: Sector 33 (and the nearby industrial sectors 29 and 32)

The project dates from 2020. ThePrint reported on 4 September 2025 that 140 plots had been allotted, 84 lease deeds executed and 58 allottees given possession, with only two or three factories under active construction. In May 2025, YEIDA cancelled 16 units in Sectors 29 and 33 after finding that single families had occupied several plots, against the “one firm, one plot” rule. Allottees cited US tariffs and gaps in electricity, water and roads as reasons for delay. Allottees have 48 months from the lease deed to obtain a functional certificate, with a standard six-month extension and up to one year more with a 4% penalty.

By 6 February 2026, Indian Masterminds reported 143 of 154 plots allotted across about 100 acres, with 108 lease deeds executed, 76 allottees in possession, 15 building plans approved and 4 units under construction. Seven further plots (6.71 acres) for a second phase were at the land acquisition stage. A September 2025 e-auction under scheme YEA/IND8000(2025-26)-13 allotted 37 plots in Sectors 29, 32 and 33, two of them Toy Park plots (Impressive Times, 26 September 2025). The next scheme, YEA/IND8000(2025-26)-14, opened on 21 January 2026, closed on 19 February 2026 and set its e-auction for 12 March 2026, for Toy Park, Apparel Park, Handicraft Park and general industry or MSME plots in the same sectors (YEIDA brochure). Our guide to industrial allotment explains how those e-auctions work.

What this means if you are not buying industrial land

None of these is residential or agricultural land. Industrial plots are allotted to businesses by YEIDA scheme, not sold to households. We found no official figure linking these projects to prices or housing demand around them, so this guide makes no claim about land values. Ask which sector or village any land you are offered is in, then check the notified village list and the circle rate. Treat “next to Film City” or “near the Toy Park” in a sales pitch as marketing until the specific land is confirmed.

Please verify before you commit. Allotment counts and timelines change. Treat the figures above as a snapshot of the sources listed below and confirm current status on YEIDA’s website before relying on any one project.
