This page explains how we research and report on it.

Our reporting on New Shillong is compiled from public records: authority orders, official notifications, and current news coverage. The sources behind each claim are listed on the relevant page. We distinguish clearly between what has been officially notified and what is announced, proposed, or still under discussion.

A project of this kind shifts over time — areas, compensation rates, and schedules are revised as it moves forward. Read each figure as current only to its stated date, and verify with New Shillong Township Development Authority before relying on it. Nothing on this site is investment advice.
