Greater Noida Authority Files Police Complaint Against Mahagun Builder Over Mywoods Water Crisis

Authority Action Follows Resident Protest at Mahagun Mywoods

Mahagun Mywoods is located in Sector 16C, Greater Noida West. On August 11, 2026, residents of the society staged a protest that resulted in a significant traffic disruption and prompted official intervention.

The Incident

Residents of Mahagun Mywoods blocked a main road for eight hours in response to severe water and electricity shortages affecting the development. The disruption was significant enough to draw the attention of Greater Noida Authority officials, who responded by filing a formal complaint against the builder.

The complaint was lodged at Bisrakh police station, the jurisdiction responsible for the area. This action reflects the authority's response to the infrastructure failure and the scale of resident frustration that triggered the road blockade.

Project Background and Service Commitments

The project location ensures excellent road connectivity with FNG Expressway just a 10-minute drive away, the Noida Expressway reachable within 20 minutes, and the NH 24 Highway accessible in 15 minutes. The project commits to 24/7 power backup along with water supply at all times of the day, which includes treated water.

Mahagun Mywoods spans 35 acres and has been designed by architect Hafeez Contractor and adheres to IGBC Gold Standards. The residential community includes 2 BHK and 3 BHK residences.

Developer Context

Mahagun has more than 4 decades of experience with a portfolio encompassing 7 million square feet of residential space across 4,000 units. The group's track record of completing and handing over projects within or before stipulated schedules has been recognised by CNBC Awaaz, Times Business Awards, and Quikr Homes between 2014 and 2019.

Greater Noida Water Infrastructure Context

Greater Noida has faced long-standing water supply challenges. The Greater Noida Authority has yet to complete work on the pipeline network for the Ganga water supply project, and Greater Noida Authority implemented a 10% increase in water charges effective April 1, 2026. These broader infrastructure constraints form the backdrop against which individual projects must maintain promised service levels to residents.
