    Questions about property and business in Varanasi

    Reviewed by Vishal Garg, founder
    Last reviewed

    Can't find your answer?

    How do I find VDA approved plots for sale in Varanasi?

    Open the Marketplace menu on Aerocity Varanasi and choose VDA approved land, or tick the VDA approved filter. Listings show the locality, plot size in sq ft or biswa, price and the seller's approval details. Popular areas include Babatpur near the airport, Phulpur, Harhua and the Ring Road.

    Source: VDA

    What is the difference between VDA approved and UP-RERA approved plots?

    A VDA approval means the Varanasi Development Authority has sanctioned the layout or building map and its land use. A UP-RERA registration applies to projects sold by developers, such as plotted townships and apartments, and lets you check the promoter, approved plans and completion date on the UP-RERA portal. A single plot sold by an owner needs VDA sanction and clear title; a developer's township needs UP-RERA registration.

    Source: UP-RERA portal · VDA

    Where can I buy plots near Varanasi airport (Babatpur)?

    Aerocity Varanasi focuses on the airport belt around Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport at Babatpur, with plots, warehouses and commercial land in Babatpur, Phulpur, Harhua and along the Ring Road. Search “Babatpur” or open the featured market on the home page.

    Can I find flats for sale in Varanasi on Aerocity Varanasi?

    Yes. Choose Residential flats in the Marketplace menu to see 2 BHK and 3 BHK flats in areas such as Sigra, Lanka, Mahmoorganj and Shivpur, with price, carpet area and the project's UP-RERA number where available.

    How can I sell or lease a factory in Ramnagar Industrial Area, Chandauli?

    Post a listing under Manufacturing with the plot size, shed area, power load and price. Ramnagar Industrial Area has 642 plots across Phase I and Phase II, all allotted, so most deals are resale or lease of existing units. Buyers searching for industrial land and factories in Varanasi and Chandauli see your listing.

    Source: MSME District Industrial Profile, Chandauli

    Where can I find cement, TMT bar and brick dealers in Varanasi and Chandauli?

    Open Building materials in the Marketplace menu. Dealers list cement, Fe 500D TMT bars, bricks, sand, gitti, tiles and sanitaryware with rates and delivery areas across Varanasi, Chandauli and Mughalsarai (Pt. DDU Nagar).

    Are restaurants, cafés and cloud kitchens for sale or rent in Varanasi listed here?

    Yes. The F&B listings category covers running cafés, restaurants, sweet shops, bakeries and cloud kitchens for sale or lease, with FSSAI and GST details where the seller provides them.

    How do I find transporters, warehouses and packers and movers in Varanasi?

    Choose Transport & logistics in the Marketplace menu for truck and trailer operators, warehouses and cold storage, freight forwarders and customs brokers, and packers and movers in Varanasi, Chandauli and Mughalsarai.

    How can I export Banarasi silk sarees from Varanasi?

    You need an Import Export Code (IEC) from DGFT, the correct HS code for your product, an agreed Incoterm such as FOB, and a freight forwarder. Aerocity Varanasi lists Banarasi silk, carpet, handicraft and agro exporters with their IEC, and the blog has a step-by-step export guide.
