Is this property worth considering?
Requires investigation
Physical possession is already with the bank, which removes the commonest Indian auction trap. No valuation range can be established from registered sales; title, dues and any tribunal challenge are the buyer's own enquiry.
Preliminary assessment drafted with software and fact-checked by the NITARYA research team on 27 October 2026. Not yet reviewed by a partner.

2Can I legally purchase it?Check

- The notice's bidder conditions
- Original notice (opens the issuer's file)
3Is the reserve price attractive?Not established
The reserve is ₹1.62 crore. India has no public register of completed sales at scale, so no independent valuation range is established for this property yet and no discount is claimed. Asking prices for similar units nearby are the next step, labelled as asking prices.
Evidence
- No comparable set yet
- Original notice (opens the issuer's file)
4What could go wrong?
Possession: physical, with the bank. Encumbrances: No encumbrances advised to the bank; bidders to make their own enquiries; sold as is where is. Litigation: None (notice item 14). Dues to the society, the municipality and utilities pass to the buyer.
Evidence
- Sale notice
- Risk register, nine categories, filed 27 October 2026
- Original notice (opens the issuer's file)
5What will it actually cost?
Deposit ₹16.20 lakh before the auction; 25% of the sale price (less EMD) on the same day or the next working day; the balance 75% within 15 days of confirmation, extendable in writing to three months. Purchaser pays stamp duty, registration and all dues; 1% TDS above Rs 50 lakh. Starting assumption for buying costs: stamp duty and registration of about 7%, so a purchase at the reserve costs about ₹1.73 crore before any arrears. Bids rise in steps of ₹0.50 lakh.
Evidence
- Sale notice terms
- State stamp duty schedule, starting assumption
- Original notice (opens the issuer's file)
6What returns are realistically possible?

7Who is this investment suitable for?
A resident Indian or NRI buyer with the full price available within 15 days of confirmation, able to carry unknown society dues and a title search of their own.
Evidence
- A reading of the facts above, not advice
8What should I verify before bidding?
Title search and encumbrance certificate for 30 years at the sub-registrar; society dues and property tax arrears; whether a challenge under section 17 of the SARFAESI Act or a stay is pending before the Debts Recovery Tribunal; the state of possession on the ground at the inspection; the bank's own terms on the e-auction platform.
Evidence
- Standard list for India
9What would make this investment unattractive?
A pending challenge or stay; occupied possession with no timetable; arrears above any price advantage; a reserve at or above asking prices once comparables are filed.
Evidence
- Conditions that invalidate the preliminary view
10What should I do next?
Obtain professional due diligence before any bid: the title search, the society statement and the Debts Recovery Tribunal check. The price cannot be judged until asking-price comparables are filed.
