1. Down payment — 20%
Paid when the booking form is submitted. It secures a plot category, not a specific plot number; the exact plot is assigned at balloting.

Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan
The Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan in full: what falls due when, worked examples in rupees, and the checks to run before your down payment leaves the bank.
The plan in one paragraph
The Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan is a five-stage installment schedule: 20% down payment at booking, a 10% balloting payment, four further balloting payments of 5% each, 30 monthly installments of 1% each, and a final 20% possession payment. Those stages add up to 100% of the plot price across roughly three years. The percentages are the structure used across Etihad Group's schemes; the rupee amounts depend on the launch price list, which has not been published yet.
- Cash at booking: 20% of plot value, not a token booking fee.
- Monthly burden: 1% of plot value each month for 30 months.
- Lumpy months: five balloting payments land on top of the monthly installment.
- Held back: 20% is due at possession, so budget for it separately.
The full Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan schedule
Every stage below is expressed as a share of the total plot price. Multiply each percentage by your plot's launch price to get the rupee figure.
| Stage | Share of price | When it falls due | Running total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Down payment | 20% | At booking | 20% |
| Balloting payment | 10% | At the official balloting | 30% |
| Balloting payments 2–5 | 4 × 5% = 20% | At intervals during the term | 50% |
| Monthly installments | 30 × 1% = 30% | Monthly for 30 months | 80% |
| Possession payment | 20% | Before possession is handed over | 100% |
The detail most buyers miss: only 30% of the price is spread evenly. The other 70% arrives in five lumps — one at booking, four during the term, and one at possession. Buyers who budget only for the 1% monthly figure are the ones who default in balloting months.

What the Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan costs in rupees
The Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan percentages are fixed, but the rupee amounts are not. Prices below are illustrative placeholders used to demonstrate the arithmetic, not quoted rates. Substitute the launch figures when they are issued.
| Plot | Assumed price | 20% down payment | Monthly (1%) | Each 5% balloting | 20% at possession |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 Marla | PKR 5,000,000 | PKR 1,000,000 | PKR 50,000 | PKR 250,000 | PKR 1,000,000 |
| 10 Marla | PKR 9,000,000 | PKR 1,800,000 | PKR 90,000 | PKR 450,000 | PKR 1,800,000 |
| 1 Kanal | PKR 16,000,000 | PKR 3,200,000 | PKR 160,000 | PKR 800,000 | PKR 3,200,000 |
How to stress-test your own number
- Take 20% of the plot price — that is the cash you need on day one.
- Take 1% — that is your fixed monthly outflow for 30 months.
- Add 5% to your monthly figure in any balloting month and check you can still pay.
- Set aside the final 20% before possession is called, not after.
Stage by stage
How each Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan stage works
2. Balloting payment — 10%
Due around the official balloting, the draw that assigns your plot number and block. Missing it can forfeit your place in the draw.
3. Four payments — 5% each
Spread across the term at defined intervals. These are the instalments that catch out buyers budgeting only for the monthly figure.
4. Monthly — 30 × 1%
Thirty consecutive monthly installments, each 1% of the plot price. Pay by bank transfer and keep the receipt for every single month.
5. Possession — 20%
The final payment before physical possession is handed over. Development charges and utility connection fees are usually separate.
Extra charges to expect
Category charges for corner, park-facing and boulevard plots, plus transfer fees and development charges, sit outside the headline schedule. Ask for them in writing.
Commercial plots
The commercial Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan
Commercial plots of 4 Marla and 8 Marla follow the same staged structure as residential ones, but the underlying price per marla is substantially higher, so every percentage translates into a larger rupee figure.
Commercial buyers should also plan construction capital separately. A commercial plot generates nothing until a plaza or shop is built and the surrounding residential population is occupied.
Rental yield in a new society typically appears only once a meaningful share of homes are built and lived in. That usually lags plot possession by several years, which is why commercial plots suit patient capital rather than short holds.
Position matters more than size: a 4 Marla shop on the main boulevard usually outperforms an 8 Marla plot on an internal commercial street. Check block position on the master plan before choosing.

Context
How this compares with Etihad Group's other schemes
The Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan mirrors a three-year model the group uses across its projects, which is useful context when judging whether terms offered to you are standard.
| Project | Booking | Monthly | Periodic payments | Possession |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Multan (expected) | 20% | 30 × 1% | 10% balloting + 4 × 5% | 20% |
| Etihad Town Phase 3, Lahore | 20% | 30 × 1% | 10% balloting + 5 × 4% semi-annual | 20% |
| Etihad Town Phase 4, Lahore | Three-year installment plan on 5 and 10 Marla plots, Raiwind Road. | |||
The pattern is consistent: 20% in, 20% out, 30% monthly and 30% in periodic instalments. If an agent offers you terms that deviate sharply from this shape, ask which official document authorises them.
6Steps from enquiry to booking
Booking
Booking under the Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan, step by step
- Choose the category. Decide between 5 Marla, 10 Marla, 1 Kanal, 2 Kanal residential or 4 and 8 Marla commercial.
- Get the dated price sheet. Insist on a stamped document issued by the developer, not a forwarded image.
- Verify approval and bank details. Confirm the layout's approval status and the developer's titled company account.
- Submit the booking form. Attach CNIC or NICOP copies, photographs and nominee details.
- Pay 20% through banking channels. Never pay cash to an individual; collect a stamped receipt in your own name.
- Keep the schedule. Pay balloting and monthly installments on time and file every receipt.
Documents required
- CNIC or NICOP copy of the buyer
- Two passport-size photographs
- Completed and signed booking form
- CNIC copy of the nominee
- Proof of the down payment transfer
Risk control
Five checks before you pay
Verify the approval
Ask for the approval or NOC reference for the layout and check it against the Multan Development Authority's own record rather than a brochure reproduction.
Confirm the account title
The receiving bank account must be in the developer company's name. Payments into a personal or agency account are the single most common loss scenario.
Read the default clause
Find out the late surcharge, the grace period and what percentage is deducted if a booking is cancelled. Get it in writing before the first payment.
Date the price sheet
Undated rate sheets circulate for months after they expire. A dated, stamped document is the only version worth basing a decision on.
Fifth check: get the balloting and possession timeline written into the booking form. A schedule quoted verbally has no contractual weight when dates slip.
FAQ
Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan questions, answered
What is the Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan?
It is a staged installment schedule made up of a 20% down payment at booking, a 10% balloting payment, four further balloting payments of 5% each, 30 monthly installments of 1% each and a final 20% possession payment. Those stages total 100% of the plot price across roughly three years.
How much cash do I need on day one?
The Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan requires twenty percent of the plot price at booking. On a plot priced at PKR 5,000,000 that is PKR 1,000,000 at booking, with a monthly installment of PKR 50,000 thereafter. Budget separately for transfer and category charges, which sit outside the headline schedule.
How long does the plan run?
The monthly term is 30 months. Once the balloting instalments and the possession payment are included, most buyers should plan for a three-year commitment overall rather than two and a half.
Are the plot prices confirmed?
No plot-wise price list has appeared in the public record so far. Rupee figures circulating on social media should be treated as indicative until the developer issues a dated, stamped launch sheet. The percentage structure is far more stable than the prices.
What happens if I miss an installment?
Housing schemes in Punjab typically charge a late surcharge and may cancel a booking after a defined default period, deducting a percentage of what has already been paid. Terms vary by project, so ask for the default and refund clause in writing before booking.
Is there a discount for paying in full?
Lump-sum discounts are common in Pakistani housing schemes and are usually strongest at launch. Confirm the exact percentage and its deadline with the official sales office, because promotional terms change between phases and blocks.
Can I transfer or sell the plot before possession?
Most schemes allow transfer of a file after a minimum number of installments have been paid, subject to a transfer fee and the society's own procedure. Confirm the minimum holding period and fee before you buy if resale is part of your plan.
Can overseas Pakistanis use the installment plan?
Yes. The Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan works the same way for overseas buyers, who commonly book through a nominee or a registered power of attorney using NICOP documents and pay instalments by bank remittance. Keep remittance advice for every transfer, since it also supports the source-of-funds record.
Does the Etihad Town Multan Payment Plan cover development charges?
Usually not. Development charges, utility connection fees, category premiums for corner or boulevard plots, and transfer fees are typically billed separately. Ask for a full list of extras alongside the price sheet so you can compare the true total.
Where can I check the plot's location before booking?
Review the master plan and map guide to see block layout, boulevard position and commercial zoning, and the location analysis for corridor access and drive times. Choose the plot before you choose the instalment schedule.
