200 gaj plot in Dehradun — size, price and where to buy

The 200 gaj plot is north India's classic family plot: big enough for a comfortable duplex with parking and a small garden, small enough to stay within reach. In Dehradun — the Doon valley's mix of city, forest and foothills — it's the size most buyers start their search with. This page covers what 200 gaj actually means, what it costs across Dehradun, and where to see live 200-gaj plots for sale on a map.

How big is 200 gaj, exactly?

A gaj is a square yard. So 200 gaj converts to:

Unit	200 gaj equals
Square feet	1,800 sq ft
Square metres	≈ 167 sq m
Square yards	200 sq yd (same thing — gaj = sq yd)
Typical dimensions	30 × 60 ft, or 36 × 50 ft

On 200 gaj you can typically build a 3–4 bedroom duplex with covered parking, subject to local building bye-laws and setbacks — which is exactly why this size holds its value so well.

What does a 200 gaj plot cost in Dehradun?

Dehradun pricing is intensely local — the same 200 gaj can differ several times over between a premium address and the developing fringe. As a rule of thumb from listings on this portal:

• Purkul & the Mussoorie foothills — the premium hillside belt. Sellers here ask the highest per-gaj rates in the valley for view plots.
• Rajpur Road — Dehradun's blue-chip corridor, with the city's highest circle rates after the 2025 revision.
• Sahastradhara Road — fast-developing, popular with builders; mid-to-upper rates.
• Shimla Bypass & Selaqui — the value end: larger plots, lower per-gaj rates, and some of the sharpest recent percentage appreciation.

⚠️ Rates above are sellers' asking prices on 200Gaj — asking is typically higher than what deals close at, and it is not an official valuation. Uttarakhand also publishes official circle rates per area, which set the minimum registry value. Always check both before negotiating.

Buying a 200 gaj plot in Dehradun — the checklist

• Land classification first. Uttarakhand restricts purchase of agricultural land by non-agriculturists and outside-state buyers. For a house plot, you want residential/converted land — verify the classification in the revenue records (khasra/khatauni) before anything else.
• Clear title and chain of ownership — have a lawyer trace it back; insist on original documents.
• Physical demarcation — get the boundaries measured on the ground before registry; 200 gaj on paper should be 200 gaj on the earth.
• Approach road and services — a plot with a motorable road, water and electricity nearby is worth the premium over a cheaper landlocked parcel.
• Budget beyond the land price — stamp duty and registration charges apply on top (check current Uttarakhand rates), plus boundary-wall and levelling costs for hillside plots.
• Remember: land pays no rent. A plot is a capital-appreciation asset, not an income one — buy with a horizon of years, not months.
