Greater Noida

Greater Noida is a planned city located in the Gautam Buddha Nagar district of the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh.[6] The city was created as an extension of the area under the UP Industrial Area Development Act, of 1976.[7] Situated 30 km (19 mi) southeast of the capital city of New Delhi, it takes around 30 minutes to travel between the cities via the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway. The city is administered by the Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority (GNIDA).[8] It is part of Meerut Division in Uttar Pradesh. Initially, developers coined the term ”Noida Extension” to differentiate it from Noida but also was adjacent to the latter. The Greater Noida Authority later declared that the area would be referred to as 'Greater Noida West'.[9]
