## Summary

Rudn Enclave, in Mouza Budhiyal on Adyala Road, Rawalpindi, is on RDA's list of illegal housing schemes, last updated 25 March 2026. The developer, RMRSCO (Pvt) Ltd, says it is PHATA approved but publishes no approval letter. In September 2023 RDA had an FIR filed against the owners, who showed a stay order. Possession claims come only from the developer. Zameen's 5 marla average was Rs 21.7 lakh in August 2026, with 3 plots listed.

Rudn Enclave, on Adyala Road in Rawalpindi, is **on RDA's list of illegal housing schemes**, last updated on 25 March 2026 and checked by us on 25 October 2026. The developer, RMRSCO (Pvt) Ltd, says it is "PHATA approved" but publishes no approval letter.

In September 2023, RDA had an FIR filed against the owners, who showed a stay order. On Zameen, the average 5 marla plot was **Rs 21.7 lakh** in August 2026.

## Is Rudn Enclave approved by RDA?

No. RDA (Rawalpindi Development Authority) is the authority for private schemes in Rawalpindi, and its lists show:

| RDA list | Entry | Where | Last updated |
|---|---|---|---|
| Illegal schemes | RUDN Enclave | Mouza Budhiyal, Adyala Road | 25 Mar 2026 |
| Approved schemes | No match for "rudn" | | |

Rudn Enclave isn't on CDA's lists either, because it is in Rawalpindi district, outside Islamabad Capital Territory. You can check any scheme name yourself with our [society approval check](/property/tools/society-approval-check/).

## Is Rudn Enclave PHATA approved?

The developer says so. Its website states that "RUDN Enclave is a PHATA approved housing society" and holds ISO certification, but it doesn't publish a PHATA letter, number or approved area.

Zameen's undated area guide doesn't mention a PHATA approval; it says the developers "expect approval of this project by the Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA) soon". We follow RDA's list, which is the official record for Rawalpindi district.

**If you already hold a Rudn Enclave file:** A file is a promise of a plot before a plot number is allotted. Keep every receipt and allotment letter, and don't pay new charges on the strength of the "PHATA approved" claim alone. The developer has set a 31 October 2026 deadline for merging, conversion and plot relocation, and says it will post "a dedicated update regarding legal matters" by the end of October 2026.

## What action has RDA taken against Rudn Enclave?

On 11 September 2023, ProPakistani reported that RDA had taken legal action against the owners of "an illegal housing scheme named Rudn Enclave". RDA's MP&TE directorate had an **FIR filed at Saddar Baironi police station**, naming the owners as **Rahimuddin and Usman Shahid**.

RDA warned them to stop marketing a project that "lacked official approval". When RDA's enforcement squad arrived, the scheme's representatives presented a **stay order**. We found no later report on what happened to that case, so we can't say whether the stay is still in force.

## Is there possession in Rudn Enclave?

Only the developer says so. Its blog post of 14 October 2026 says possession "has progressed first in the East & West Sectors, followed by Sectors A & B, with remaining sectors moving forward phase-wise". We found no independent report or photo record of development.

Possession means handing over a developed plot you can build on. Ask for a possession letter for your specific plot, not a general announcement.

## What is the Rudn Enclave payment plan?

We found no current price list. Zameen's undated area guide gives a General Block plan with a 15% booking and 48 monthly instalments:

| Plot | Total price | Booking | 48 monthly |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 marla | Rs 12 lakh | Rs 1.8 lakh | Rs 17,000 |
| 10 marla | Rs 21.65 lakh | Rs 3.25 lakh | Rs 31,572 |

On 25 October 2026, the developer's home page still showed an offer of 15% discounts on development charges and land cost "before 30th Sep". Payments are made to RMRSCO Private Limited.

## What are Rudn Enclave plot prices?

We use Zameen's index of average asking prices. Asking prices are what sellers ask, not what buyers pay.

| Plot | Aug 2021 | Aug 2023 | Aug 2024 | Aug 2025 | Aug 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 marla | Rs 11.6 lakh | Rs 12.7 lakh | Rs 18.0 lakh | Rs 18.3 lakh | Rs 21.7 lakh |
| 10 marla | Rs 22.3 lakh | Rs 25.1 lakh | Rs 33.3 lakh | Rs 30.5 lakh | Rs 34.0 lakh |

The 5 marla average rose about 20% from August 2024 to August 2026. But it didn't change at all from November 2024 to April 2026, which suggests few listings feed it.

The 10 marla average was Rs 34.0 lakh in August 2026, close to its August 2024 level.

## Does Rudn Enclave have gas, electricity and water?

We couldn't confirm any of them. The developer's FAQ says electricity, gas and water "are naturally available at the site", but we found no IESCO, SNGPL or independent source as of October 2026.

## Who is the developer of Rudn Enclave?

The developer's FAQ says Rudn Enclave is owned by **RMRSCO (Pvt) Ltd**, founded in 2017, and that this is its first housing project. It names NESPAK as planner and UPDL, Al-Haq Builders & Developers and New Leafs as the development team. It claims the scheme covers 18,000 kanal; we found no official record of its area.

On the evidence, the record is poor: RDA lists the scheme as illegal, and the 2023 FIR was about marketing a scheme without approval.

## Where is Rudn Enclave?

RDA puts Rudn Enclave in **Mouza Budhiyal, Adyala Road**. The developer's FAQ gives its map point and says it is opposite the Bahria Phase 8 extension, between Khasala and Jawa dams, next to the Rawalpindi Ring Road. By our straight-line calculation, that point is about **21 km from Saddar Rawalpindi** and 18 km from Islamabad airport.

The [Rawalpindi Ring Road](/property/guides/rawalpindi-ring-road/) was built but not yet open to traffic on 20 October 2026, Dawn reported. A road nearby doesn't change a scheme's legal status.

## How easy is it to resell a Rudn Enclave plot?

Hard, on the evidence. Zameen showed only **3 plots for sale** on 25 October 2026, and its price index was flat for more than a year.

Compare it with schemes on nearby roads: [Kingdom Valley](/property/islamabad/kingdom-valley-islamabad/), [Blue World City](/property/islamabad/blue-world-city/) and [Capital Smart City](/property/islamabad/capital-smart-city/).

## Rudn Enclave: facts and scorecard

- Approval: Not approved
- 5 marla plot: Rs 21.66 lakh
- Possession: Unclear
- Our score: 2.6/10

- Legal status: 1/10 (On RDA's illegal list (updated 25 Mar 2026), with an RDA FIR against the owners in 2023; the 'PHATA approved' claim has no published letter.)
- Possession & development: Not enough evidence yet (Only the developer's own claims of possession in East & West and Sectors A and B.)
- Price & appreciation: 4/10 (Zameen's 5 marla average rose from Rs 18.0 lakh (Aug 2024) to Rs 21.7 lakh (Aug 2026), but the index sat unchanged from Nov 2024 to Apr 2026.)
- Utilities: Not enough evidence yet (No SNGPL, IESCO or independent source.)
- Developer track record: 2/10 (First project of RMRSCO (founded 2017); kept selling after RDA's 2023 FIR and illegal listing.)
- Location: 5/10 (On Adyala Road near the Rawalpindi Ring Road (not yet open, Oct 2026), about 21 km in a straight line from Saddar.)
- Resale liquidity: 1/10 (Only 3 plots listed on Zameen (25 Oct 2026).)

**Suits:** No buyer, while RDA lists it as illegal. Existing file holders should keep every receipt and watch for RDA or court decisions.

**Avoid if:** You're relying on the developer's 'PHATA approved' claim or on the Ring Road to make it safe.

**Main risks:** RDA lists Rudn Enclave as illegal (Oct 2026). RDA had an FIR filed against the owners in September 2023; a stay order was shown. No independent evidence of possession or utilities. Very thin resale market: 3 plots on Zameen in October 2026.
