Two Chandigarh Housing Board Flats Sold for Rs 3.81 Crore in Auction; Others Unsold
The Chandigarh Housing Board (CHB) auctioned 14 freehold residential properties, with only two flats in Sector 63 selling for a combined Rs 3.81 crore, each fetching about Rs 60 lakh above their reserve prices. The remaining 12 properties, including units in Indira Colony, Manimajra, Modern Housing Complex, and a high-value house in Sector 46-C, received no bids. Experts cited high reserve prices and buyer preferences as factors for the limited response. The CHB had also recently seen poor interest in commercial property auctions.
