Supernova Spira, Mixed-use skyscraper in Sector 94, Noida, India
Supernova Spira is an unfinished mixed-use skyscraper on Amrapali Marg in Sector 94, Noida, designed by the UK firm Benoy with a cylindrical glass form inspired by the Yamuna. Its dark blue-grey facade is banded by lighter structural lines marking each floor, and a white "SUPERNOVA" sign sits midway up the tower. Plans call for retail and offices at the base, residences on floors 5 to 17, suites on 19 to 43, offices on 46 to 58 and Sky Villas on 59 to 66.
Construction of Supernova Spira began in 2012 and reached 38 floors by January 2016 and 59 floors by August 2018. Work paused in April 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, and UP-RERA opened an investigation into financial irregularities that September. Insolvency proceedings followed in June 2024, when the tower stood 60 percent complete at 68 floors; Kotak Investments took over the project that August, and it remained on hold as of October 2025.
The tower's name, Supernova Spira, pairs the developer Supertech's Supernova branding with a spiral form; the design by UK firm Benoy draws on the fluid curves of the Yamuna river. Floors are zoned by use: retail and offices at the base, Spira Residences apartments on floors 5 to 17, suites up to 43, offices on 46 to 58, and Spira Sky Villas on 59 to 66.
Supernova Spira stands on Amrapali Marg in Sector 94, Noida, beside a second partially built high-rise of the same Supernova complex. Construction has been on hold since 2020, so the tower is a fenced, unfinished site rather than a working building; there is no access to the interior, the planned observation deck or the helipad. View it from the road outside.
The tower's design by the UK firm Benoy draws on the fluid forms of the Yamuna river, and its 68th floor is planned to hold a helipad and an observation deck with views over Noida and the Yamuna basin. The revised plan dropped the original extruding helipad and the tapering top.
