Haryana Urban Development Authority, also known as HUDA, is the urban planning agency of the state of Haryana except Gurgaon whereas Gurgaon having GURUGRAM METROPOLITAN DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY in India. It was established in 1977. The Chief Minister of Haryana is the Chairman of the authority. The headquarters of the authority are located in Panchkula, Haryana.
Urban Estates Department was established in 1962 for planned development of cities in Haryana. Due to lack of co-ordination between Urban Estates Department and other departments of the Government of Haryana, the growth of estates started slowing down.Besides, as the Department had to follow the financial rules and regulations of Government, the arrangement of funds and sanction of estimates used to take a long time and the development works did not keep pace with the required standards of physical achievements. It was also felt that being a Government department, it was unable to raise resources from various lending institutions although there were many financial institutions in the country to finance urban development programmes .The Urban Estates Department was not effective in achieving its defined goals of planned urban development to the satisfaction of the public at large. Thus, in order to over come all these difficulties and to achieve the expeditious development of urban estates, it was felt that the Department of Urban Estates should be converted into such a body which could take up all the development activities itself and provide various facilities in the Urban Estates expeditiously and consequently the Haryana Urban Development Authority came into existence on 13-01-1977 under the Haryana Urban Development Authority Act, 1977 to take over work, responsibilities hither to being handled by individual Government departments.
The authority has divided the districts of Haryana into four divisions or zones except Gurugram .
