Mayapuri is a locality in West Delhi. It used to be a major hub of small scale industries, but following recent government sanctions, most of the heavy metal industries moved out. The place is now a combination of residential flats (DDA and private), light metal factories and automobile service stations.
The area is mostly residential now, with major localities built by the Delhi Development Authority (DDA). These include Hari Enclave, Vikrant Enclave, MIG Flats and Maya Enclave.
