No spun content, no recycled 2023 numbers. Every guide carries its date, its sources and the caveats other sites leave out — including the bad news.
The third ballot was drawn on 15 September 2026, eleven days after applications closed. How to check your result, what winners pay within 30 days, the official prices — and buying or selling a balloted plot.
Websites quote three different '5 Marla prices' for Margalla Enclave — 1.55 Crore, 1.8 Crore, even 2.1 Crore — and none explains why. Here is what each number actually is and which one you would pay.
Same corridor, opposite products. One is a live resale market with 16 sectors at 16 prices; the other is a government-backed ballot with instalments. The honest comparison, risk by risk.
Sector letters are not a price ranking — development stage is. A sector-by-sector read of where the risk sits and where the value is, from A's certainty premium to O's litigation caveat.
Sticker price is never the landed cost. §236K at 1.25% (filer) vs up to 18.5% (non-filer), ~1% stamp duty, society transfer fees — totalled for real 5 Marla, 10 Marla and 1 Kanal examples.
+8% in six months, +0.5% year-on-year — both true. Underpass tailwinds, a CDA notice nobody mentions, and why sector selection beats society averages. With sources.
The five-check verification we run before every token: record match, litigation, dues, physical level, and stage-of-title. Plus the Bahria Enclave / Margalla Enclave fake-file patterns and the scams that target overseas buyers.
The official schedule, re-checked 22 Aug 2026: transfer fees Rs 73,200–304,920, possession charges Rs 108,000+, utility connections — and the honest answer on what maintenance actually costs per month.
Directly opposite each other on the Park Road corridor, with very different histories. Prices, possession, the NOC saga courts actually ruled on — sourced and dated, including the parts dealers skip.
Zone IV on the Bani Gala side of Islamabad, reached via Park Road and Jinnah Avenue. Distances table, access routes, the underpass status — and the Bahria Town Rawalpindi mix-up cleared up.
Grey structure PKR 2,650–3,500/sq ft, turnkey 7,000–8,800 — with the covered-area assumptions shown, Aug-2026 cement and steel rates, and the Bahria Enclave fees the city-wide calculators skip.
Possession charges, design-approval fees, the boundary-wall-first rule, controlled elevations — and the no-Sui-gas truth the brochures skip. The paperwork layer between buying and building.
5 Marla 75–90k, 10 Marla 135–195k, 1 Kanal ~3.5 lakh monthly. Live Aug-2026 bands, where the tenants actually are, and why a premium-sector build-to-rent grosses ~3.8%, not the 7% you were quoted.
Verified from the Finance Act 2026 gazette: §236C flat 2.75% filers / 11.5% non-filers, late-filer tier abolished; CGT 15% flat on post-2024 purchases; §7E repealed. Worked examples and the overseas seller's route.
There is no inheritance tax in Pakistan — the cost is in the process. NADRA succession certificates (Rs 10–20k, 15–30 days), wirasat intiqal at the society office, hiba between relatives, and the overseas-heir route.
DHA Phase 2's 10 Marla asks 2.5–3.5 Crore; Bahria Enclave's runs 1.00–3.00 Crore by sector. Title depth vs price-per-rupee, the DHA Valley file saga, and which buyer belongs where.
Both sit on the Park Road corridor. One is CDA paper with a 14-year delivery saga still in the press in Feb 2026; the other is a private society with finished sectors you can build in today.
The 4-Sep window closes — then what? How results arrived last time, the ~30-day down-payment clock, what a 'file' really trades like before full payment, and the profit numbers sources disagree on.
In Sector B-1 a 5 Marla costs ~PKR 29.5 Lac per marla and a 1 Kanal ~15.8 — an 87% small-plot liquidity premium on the same streets. Why the market prices size this way, and which size fits which job.
How overseas money legally buys a plot: RDA/NRVA mechanics, the repatriation guarantee, the 3-year capital-gain hold, §75A's banking-channel rule — and the family-remittance route done right.
The As-Built/Proposed Layout Plan, digitised: pan-and-zoom map, a clickable sector schematic, and the honest sector-by-sector read of the white parcels the plan itself marks as outside the approved LOP — plus CDA's brand-new 20-Aug-2026 display directive.
Not more sectors — a separate footprint on main Angoori Road, anchored by the Agro Farm Houses scheme (NOC reported Jun-2019, ~2,489 kanal; a further 1,180-kanal Enclave-II NOC reported Feb-2021). The confusion, cleared with dates.
Approved: LOP Dec-2020, full LOP+NOC 8-Apr-2022. Then the honest asterisks — the unresolved Mar-2026 CDA notice, parcels outside the LOP, Sector O's history, and the Bahria Town mix-up that fuels the 'illegal' rumours.
Bahria Enclave resale is lump-sum territory — the genuine instalment routes are Margalla's official plan, bank/RDA financing, and seller-financed deals that are only as safe as the checklist you run first.
The resident's view: Grand Jamia, Galleria, the ~34-kanal Sector L zoological garden, school and hospital sites — and the honestly-labelled parts: no Sui gas, bowser water outside H/G, postal code 44000 in practice.
Not at the foot of the Margalla Hills — Zone IV on the Jinnah Avenue corridor, near Chak Shahzad. Access and the underpass status, the 'site office number' trap, and why no pre-ballot plot map exists.
Every development that moves this corridor, dated and linked to its deep guide: CDA's 20-Aug LOP-display directive, the underpass status, FA2026 taxes, the Margalla ballot countdown. Updated as events land.
Not an orchard and not originally DHA's: the FGEHA-SCBA Park Road Housing Scheme of 2019, rebranded after DHA joined on 26 Sep 2025. Location, blocks, plot sizes — and the 'CDA NOC' claim nobody can source.
Different road, different origin, different legal track — and Google suggests the comparison in both directions. Developer, approval basis, prices, liquidity and possession risk, set side by side and dated.
Residential is quoted cash-only while the commercial zone runs a 3-year plan, and two dealer sites disagree by a factor of ten on the same plot. Every number here carries its source and its date.
5, 8 and 10 Marla commercial on Park Road: the 13-Feb application deadline, the 18-Feb-2026 ballot, the instalment ladder, and why the advertised price appears as both 9.10 Crore and 91 Lac.
We opened FGEHA's own approved layout-plan sheet (NESPAK, 3 Aug 2022) and read it: all eight blocks A to H, every park and commercial parcel by area, the 180 ft Main Boulevard, the graveyard and the nullah — plus which blocks actually trade.
A dated log of what has happened and what has not: the 2022 balloting, DHA's Sep-2025 entry, the Feb-2026 commercial ballot, and the possession date and CDA NOC nobody has produced.
Matched same-listing sale-and-rent pairs put honest gross yields at 5–8% — against dealer claims of 10%+. Aug-2026 asking bands, CDA auction results to Aug 2026, the FAR-fee change that ended Blue Area's premium, and the completion-certificate fact from Dawn.
Plain residential land clusters at PKR 25–30 Crore per Kanal; Margalla Road frontage asks double that; Markaz land runs 5–7× residential. Live Aug-2026 numbers, the rental-market truth, and the 'most expensive sector' claim checked honestly.
Residential land around PKR 20–24 Crore per Kanal, 1 Kanal houses 28–30 Crore, 426 live rentals — and the Oct-2025 CDA rule that made F-7 commercial the priciest FAR in Islamabad. Every number dated, sub-sector gaps admitted.
Around PKR 20–24 Crore per Kanal on a thin 13-listing plot sample we size honestly. House and rental bands from 245 and 330 live listings, the genuine F-8 Markaz auction results, and the courts-moved-to-G-11/4 correction most pages still miss.
Five plot listings in the entire sector. Two-Kanal houses at a median ~65 Crore, gross yields under 3%, visible corner and park-facing premiums — and the tested finding that E-7 has no numbered sub-sectors at all.
The One Window route, the full document list, NDC in 4 working days, family transfer at PKR 5,000, the 1%→3%→1% transfer-fee timeline — and CDA's own rule that outstanding dues block any transfer. From CDA's primary pages, dated.
The gazette table nobody publishes readably: E-7 tops FBR's own ladder at Rs 225,000/sq yd, F-6/F-7 at 210,000, Bahria Enclave A/B/C at 35,000 — plus what these values actually decide (§236C/K, CGT), the market-vs-FBR ratio, and the SRO timeline through the 7-Aug E-8 amendment.
Plots ask 8–14.5 Crore per Kanal and the priciest parcel sits on land a 2011 Supreme Court ruling called illegally transacted. The society-by-society map, the NOC record, the apartment towers — and the checks a buyer here actually needs.
Single-authority CDA title, no possession disputes on record, a transacted Rs 1.04bn Markaz auction (Dec 2025) and Islamabad's new cricket stadium — with live per-Kanal asking bands of 10–18 Crore and the FBR-valuation anomaly we publish rather than smooth.
Residential plots cluster at PKR 18–20 Crore per Kanal, the Markaz carries 45 live commercial listings from 60-Lakh shops to Arab-scale plazas — and a real transacted anchor: Plot A-284, F-10/3, Rs 246 million at CDA auction, Dec 2025. Dated, sample sizes shown.
At PKR 13.5–17 Crore per Kanal, F-11 prices below F-6, F-7, F-8 and F-10 on live data — with a verified Rs 8,100/sq ft FAR fee, a transacted Rs 251m CDA auction result (Jul 2025), and a Markaz where shops sell pre-rented as income assets.
Three phases in 15 years, an Aug-2026 Dawn report of mud and missing utilities on fully-paid plots — and live asking prices (5 Marla 1.30–1.60 Cr, 1 Kanal median ~4.8 Cr) that no longer discount any of it. The regulator-as-developer story, dated.
Blogs contradict each other on Islamabad's #1 sector. We rank it two ways nobody else can: FBR's official valuation ladder (E-7 first at Rs 225,000/sq yd) and our dated live asking sweeps — with the ladder, the outliers, and where the value actually hides.
How the letter-number grid works, what a Markaz is, which 'sectors' are really cooperative societies, why 'E-8 property' listings are usually Naval Anchorage — and the Diplomatic Enclave question answered straight: you cannot buy inside the wall.
The 33-km highway at the foot of the Margalla Hills — Sangjani to Bhara Kahu — what is open, what the M-1 extension changes for D-12, E-11 and the F/G/H sectors, and why 'Margalla Avenue', 'Margalla Enclave' and 'Margalla Orchard' are three different things.
How far Bahria Enclave actually is from the places people measure against: Blue Area, the airport, Faizabad, Zero Point, NUST, Murree — one honest table with routes and off-peak times, plus the one-tap live answer for 'from my location'.
Pakistan Post's own national directory has no Bahria Enclave line at all, and no 44028 anywhere in it. What actually works, what the nearest named delivery office really is, and how to write the address.
Before possession, what actually sells in DHA Margalla Enclave is files, not plots. What a file is, what premiums are really being asked, the double-sale trap, and the cheaper alternative that closes 4 September 2026.
One page, every Margalla Enclave development that matters — ballot windows, official price schedules, possession record, access works — each entry dated and sourced, updated within hours of official announcements.
The complete remote sale: the power of attorney that can actually sign a sale deed, §236C at the overseas rate, CGT — and the part nobody writes honestly: which sale proceeds can legally leave Pakistan, and which cannot.
Buying, selling, holding and inheriting: §236K and §236C at filer, non-filer and overseas (Clause 111AC) rates, the FBR verification that takes about a day, CGT for non-residents — verified from the Finance Act 2026 gazette, not blogs.
Everyone searches 'Property Act 2025' — there are actually two: a federal 2024 Act whose special court covers Islamabad Capital Territory, and Punjab's 2025 Act which extends, in its own words, to 'whole of the Punjab'. Which one protects your plot, the 182-day test that decides if you qualify, and how to use it from abroad.
How a NICOP holder in the UK, US or Gulf actually applies for the 3rd ballot without flying: the documents, the payment channel, the POA that signs for you — plus what 'DHA Islamabad overseas block' really refers to.
CDA publishes two lists almost nobody reads: 70 registered private schemes with their LOP and NOC status, and 98 schemes it calls illegal. We read both on 1 September 2026, put the fourteen illegal schemes in the Bahria Enclave corridor on the record, and show you how to check any scheme yourself in two minutes.
The mechanics end to end, off DHA's own 14-August form and its live portal: the only bank named, what you attach (no photographs), the 27-versus-30-day trap, and the seven places DHA's own paperwork contradicts itself.
DHA has never published how many plots are on offer or how many applied. What does exist: 6,990 residential plots in the whole project, an arithmetic error in DHA's own environmental filing, and the true origin of the '10% chance' figure everyone repeats.
A file is a paper claim to a future plot, not land. The five stages from file to possession, the open-file mechanism Dawn documented, and why no government website in Pakistan can verify one.
There is no dealer licence in Islamabad. The one real registration almost nobody mentions, six checks that cost nothing, and a plain list of what this site refuses to claim about itself.
Between September 2025 and August 2026 CDA served the same notice on eight Islamabad developments and ordered most of them published on its own website. On four, the register badge read “Approved” while the attachment on the same page described part of the same development as illegal.
The same phase name is regulated and taxed two different ways depending which side of a boundary your block sits on. Nobody publishes the two tables together. Here they are.
One of the cleanest badges on CDA’s register — and two final show-cause notices attached to the same page. What each one actually covers.
If you want the least complicated approval story on the Islamabad Expressway, this is probably it. That is not the same as no open questions.
Two clean register entries, 1,542 live listings — and a show-cause notice that lists the converted amenity plots by number.
These are federal-employee sectors, not private schemes. The transfer procedure, the real fee schedule, and which sub-sectors only got their completion papers weeks ago.
People say “Gulberg” and mean two different registered schemes. Here is which is which, what each is valued at, and the notice sitting on one of them.
There is no “Bani Gala NOC” to produce, because Bani Gala is not a scheme. What exists instead is a court history and a per-plot answer.
CDA publishes a list of 98 schemes it calls illegal. Nobody counts where they are. We did — and nearly half sit on one road.
The best-known farmhouse address in Islamabad is not a housing scheme at all. What you are buying is a lease with conditions — and the conditions have moved.
Phases 1 to 7 are a mature, populated market. Phase 8 and its extension are in the middle of three simultaneous and unrelated legal processes.
Four years of litigation compressed into a sequence you can actually follow — and what the register says today.
Every scheme on CDA’s two public lists in one search box: 70 registered with their layout-plan and NOC badges, 98 CDA calls illegal, and the enforcement notices CDA attaches to the same page. Only 29 of the 70 actually hold an issued NOC.
CDA’s approved layout plan and FGEHA’s Margalla Orchard plan, hosted as downloadable files with no form and no email — plus the five-minute method for reading one and spotting the parcels a plan marks as excluded.
These are CDA sectors, so the real question is which named scheme inside each one holds an NOC. CDA’s own table answers it, with dates.
Phase 1 and Phase 2 are not the same product, the same authority, or the same risk. And a third “Faisal” registration sits in Islamabad with no NOC at all.
Two separate questions live here, and conflating them helps nobody: the scheme’s own regulatory paperwork, and who has legally controlled the company behind it.
The clock starts on the ballot date, not on the letter: 30 days to the 20% down payment — 27 on the two-year plan, in the same DHA document. Category premium, transfer rules, and the resale precedent with its sources fighting each other in public.
The honest answer is that there is nothing to refund, and the “120 business days” everyone quotes at unsuccessful applicants is a clause about cancelled allotments. Plus how to check properly, and what is actually available instead.
Asking prices by size counted by hand from 328 live listings, the six things a buyer must verify, and why two dealer pages disagree by more than double about the same resale profit.
RDA’s own register approves 7,376 Kanal at Chahan — and lists two further “Capital Smart City” phases as illegal, one referred to a federal cybercrime agency. Both facts, side by side.
DHA’s own phase list stops at Phase VII and its fortnightly price sheet has no Gandhara section. What DHA, RDA and Zameen’s own listings actually show, read 3 September 2026.
Zameen files it under Islamabad, RDA and FBR under Rawalpindi, OpenStreetMap under Attock. RDA’s approved area, FBR’s value and dated asking prices, printed together rather than picked.
RDA’s own register still lists Blue World City as illegal as of 3 September 2026. The dated 2017–2026 sequence, and what dealers claim that we could not verify anywhere else.
RDA’s own record calls it “Elite Reverie Housing”, approved over 4,839 Kanal against a press figure of 700 acres. It is also the only area in this wave whose price index has fallen.
Not the Karachi scheme in the NAB headlines. FBR values a “Fazaia” four different ways across two tables — only one actually matches this scheme’s location in Tarnol.
S.R.O. 1728(I)/2024 transcribed page by page: Bahria Town’s eight phases, all fifteen Askaris, Faisal Town/Hills’ six-fold mauza gap, Top City, Capital Smart City, Mumtaz City, Eighteen and more — plus the one narrow 2026 amendment that actually changed a value, and the brand with no row at all.
DHA's oldest phase, groundbreaking 1992, sits on both sides of FBR's own valuation split – a Rawalpindi-table row and six ICT block rates, three times apart per square yard.
Commenced February 1994, on the Islamabad Expressway's edge. The phase people search sector by sector – and the one where FBR's two tables disagree by more than 2x.
FBR's own scanned notification is unreadable on Phase 3's residential rate. We derived the figure from the pattern in every neighbouring row, and show the working rather than guess.
No ICT-side FBR row, a Rawalpindi rate cut 30% in May 2026, and no independent asking-price sample we'd stand behind. What is actually confirmable about Phase 4.
IBA Karachi broke ground on a 12.5-acre Islamabad campus here in August 2026 – the one press-confirmed development story in this whole cluster. Plus both FBR tables and real sector search demand.
Dealers call it the former “Phase-II Extension”. Neither FBR table has ever had a row called “Phase 6” – and two dealer sources give its possession ceremony two different years.
Launched 18 August 2008, still marketed under two names at once. No dedicated FBR row, no reliable asking price, and a possession date two dealer sources can't agree on.
Every sector and major scheme we could place from OpenStreetMap on one map, with its CDA zone, FBR’s notified value (S.R.O. 644/2026) and our guide — plus a searchable table that works without JS.
Two live auctions on CDA's own notice board, dated: 16 hotel plots going under the hammer 13 October 2026, and the August round that raised Rs 16.44 billion in two days. Mechanics, results and what happens after you win — sourced from CDA's own notices and press releases.
RDA's own register, FBR's per-phase rate and what's actually for sale in Bahria Town Rawalpindi's oldest, most built-up phase – not the dealer version.
RDA covers Phase 2 under one combined Phase 1-3 entry. FBR's own rate, page-cited, and what that means for your tax bill.
Same RDA entry as Phases 1-2, and a separate FBR gazette line for 'Executive Meadows Phase-III' worth not confusing with plain Phase 3.
No standalone RDA entry, 55 live Zameen listings and Civic Centre commercial pairs at multiples of the residential rate next door – pulled and dated 4 Sep 2026.
RDA's register carries no separate Phase 5 entry. FBR's page-cited rate, and what search demand for this phase actually looks for.
Buyers search 'Bahria Town Rawalpindi phase-1 to 6' as one block. RDA's register and FBR's gazette both treat it more granularly than that.
Zameen tags Phase 7 Rawalpindi; CDA's own register calls it an Islamabad Zone-5 scheme. 171 live listings and both readings, dated 4 Sep 2026.
1,477 live listings, the lowest FBR rate in the cluster, and the DHA sector takeover, Punjab auction and NAB notice that only touch parts of this phase.
DHA's own five transfer categories, the DHA-402(R) document checklist and the NDC form's internal approval chain — read from DHA's own forms, with the fee it does not publish flagged as such.
RDA's own register approves Capital Smart City's Chahan land but calls two more "phases" of the same brand illegal; Blue World City's whole record reads illegal. FBR value and dated asking prices, side by side, no verdict where the record itself is unresolved.
Three schemes, three open questions: Top City's unverified NOC and a corporate-control saga, Mumtaz City's three-district jurisdiction confusion, and Faisal Town's three legal positions under one brand — RDA/FBR record and dated asking prices, side by side.
All 15 numbered Askaris share one FBR residential rate under S.R.O. 1728(I)/2024 — RDA's register does not carry the numbered Askaris by name, and Askari 14 vs 11 asking prices, dated.
Gulraiz prices up to 5x apart depending on mauza — FBR's two gazette rows, RDA's illegal-register entry, and live asking prices, page-cited and dated.
Asking-price ranges for every Islamabad sector, CDA-registered society, DHA phase and RDA/PHATA scheme we cover, against FBR's notified value — one searchable table, built entirely from our own dated pages.
Bahria Town's eight phases, DHA's seven, all fifteen Askaris, Gulraiz and the airport-corridor schemes — dated asking prices next to FBR's own gazette value, one searchable table, built entirely from our own pages.
All 688 schemes on RDA's own register, searchable in one box — 78 approved and 610 illegal, with location, area and RDA's own remark, read directly from RDA's public API on 3 September 2026.
Same brand name, two regulators — CDA's unresolved NOC status against RDA's illegal-listed 'Extension'. Both FBR gazettes, dated asking prices, no legal-status verdict.
DHA's Act-2013 self-approval and dual FBR regime against RDA's ordinary process — plus the June-2026 dispute where DHA fenced Bahria Town's own sectors. Compared side by side.
FBR splits G-6 into two values 29% apart on one gazette line — G-6/3-4 at Rs 180,000/sq yd, G-6/1-2 at 140,000. Only 4 plots were live on Zameen on 4 Sep 2026 — every number dated, the CDA transfer route explained.
One live plot on Zameen on 4 Sep 2026 — a 14.2-Marla Markaz commercial parcel at PKR 70 Crore. FBR values G-7 with G-8 at Rs 120,000/sq yd. What a built-out sector with almost no open plots actually means for a buyer.
All 4 live Zameen plots in G-8 on 4 Sep 2026 were commercial — zero residential. FBR values G-8 with G-7 at Rs 120,000/sq yd, and CDA's own auction paperwork has sold plots labelled 'Blue Area G-8'.
FBR values G-9 at Rs 130,000/sq yd — above the combined G-7/G-8 line, below G-6/3-4. Six live Zameen plots on 4 Sep 2026, PKR 8.8–25 Crore, plus the CDA 'Blue Area G-9' auction naming explained.
14 live Zameen plots on 4 Sep 2026 — the deepest sample of six G-sectors we cover — PKR 11–57 Crore. FBR values G-10 with G-11 at Rs 125,000/sq yd. The Markaz, the CDA regime and the sector map, sourced.
FBR values G-11 with G-10 at Rs 125,000/sq yd. Live Zameen bands on 4 Sep 2026: 8 Marla PKR 1.58–2.4 Crore, 1 Kanal 3.2–6.2 Crore — plus the G-11/4 Judicial Complex and the CDA transfer route.
FBR values I-8 at Rs 140,000/sq yd — above several G-series sectors — with live Zameen asking bands and the CDA transfer route, dated 4 Sep 2026.
Every live I-9 listing we found was 4.9 Kanal or larger — FBR values the sector at Rs 60,000/sq yd. Dated 4 Sep 2026 asking bands and the CDA facts.
I-10's live listings split between small residential plots and multi-Kanal parcels — FBR values it at Rs 70,000/sq yd. Dated 4 Sep 2026.
The deepest live market of seven I-series sectors — 291 listings, PKR 1.4–3.15 Cr on 4–7 Marla, FBR value Rs 28,000/sq yd. Dated 4 Sep 2026.
Confirmed sub-sectors I-14/1–4 on OpenStreetMap, 231 live Zameen listings, and what FBR's gazette does (and doesn't) say about possession. Dated 4 Sep 2026.
FBR flags I-15 “non-developed” at Rs 20,000/sq yd — yet it has 477 live Zameen listings, the largest sample in this guide. Dated 4 Sep 2026.
The one I-series sector absent from FBR's own valuation table by name — stated plainly, plus 210 live Zameen listings, dated 4 Sep 2026.
FBR values E-12 at Rs 39,200/sq yd on its own gazette line. 581 live Zameen plots across four sub-sectors, dated 4 Sep 2026 — a genuinely active CDA-sector market, sourced.
F-12 is missing from FBR's SRO 644 table AND has no Zameen sector page at all — the only lettered sector in this guide with zero live-listing presence. Stated plainly, not guessed.
Margalla View Housing Society's own CDA file — LOP, a 2002 NOC, and a Dec-2025 Show Cause Notice — plus 127 live Zameen plots, dated 4 Sep 2026.
CDA's Tele Gardens (MPCHS) notice, dated 31 March 2026, printed verbatim. FBR values F-17 at Rs 17,500/sq yd residential — its commercial line is 3.2x that. 421 live Zameen plots, dated.
FBR prices C-14 with B-17 (possession) and Margalla Orchard at Rs 21,000/sq yd — yet no CDA-registered scheme is named C-14. What that gap actually means, plus 246 live Zameen plots, dated.
FBR groups C-15 with F-17 (MPCHS/TNT), G-15 and Zaraj at Rs 17,500/sq yd — a valuation-zone code, not a CDA scheme name. 459 live Zameen plots, dated 4 Sep 2026.
FBR groups C-16 with Chatta Bakhtawar, Jinnah Garden and River Garden at Rs 14,000/sq yd. 294 live Zameen plots, sub-sector C-16/4 named on live listings, dated 4 Sep 2026.
Airport Housing Society spans 4 FBR gazette rows across its phases, an exact-name gap in RDA's register, and dated Zameen asking across 43 live plots.
Chaklala Scheme III prices well above Scheme I & II on FBR's table, sits outside RDA's exact-name register, and dated asking across 10 live Zameen plots.
Westridge's 3 phases share one FBR rate, sit outside RDA's exact-name register as an old cantonment area, and just 3 open plots were live on Zameen.
Satellite Town splits into two FBR mauza rows, sits outside RDA's exact-name register, and Zameen shows 17 live commercial & residential plots.
H-13 is missing from FBR's own Islamabad ladder — the only H-series sector on it at all. Live Zameen asking 56 Lakh–30 Crore across 14 plots, OSM coordinates, dated 4 Sep 2026.
G-12 has no row on FBR's valuation table and no live plot listing we could retrieve on Zameen — both gaps stated plainly, with OSM coordinates and what we could verify, dated 4 Sep 2026.
OSM tags I-12 as PHA Flats; live listings back it up — 60 flats, D/E-Type, 7th-floor units. Plus plot counts across I-12/1–4 and the FBR gap, dated 4 Sep 2026.
Two FBR gazette rows split Peshawar Road by area, RDA's register shows zero schemes on it by name, and only 5 plots were live on Zameen. Dated 4 Sep 2026.
RDA's own register (spelled 'Adyala Road') lists 1 approved and 31 illegal schemes here — including names actively advertised on Zameen today. FBR value and 71 live plots, dated 4 Sep 2026.
