“We are getting good response towards the scheme as several big players such as ITC Group have evinced interest in setting up hotels near the upcoming airport. Some potential bidders wanted more time to apply for the scheme so we have extended it till December 14. We will hold the e-auction on December 22 for the allotment of these hotel plots,” a senior YEIDA official told Moneycontrol.
The scheme was floated on November 1 and under the scheme only three commercial plots have been made available for auction. These commercial land parcels are being offered in three different sizes — 3,400 square metres (sq m), 5,000 sq m and 10,000 sq m.

These plots will be allotted at a rate of Rs 59,100 per sq m and preferred location charges will be additional. The reserve price of these plots has been kept between Rs 20.10 crore and Rs 62.06 crore, while the EMD or earnest money deposit value of these plots has been fixed between Rs 2 crore and Rs 6.3 crore, depending on the size.
The applicants will also have to pay a non-refundable processing fee of between Rs 2.01 lakh and Rs 6.30 lakh excluding 18 percent goods and services tax.
Officials said that these plots will be allotted to successful bidders on a lease of 90 years. Successful allottees will be permitted to construct multi-storey buildings on their plots with no specific height restrictions. However, hotel structures exceeding 24 metres in height will require clearance from the Airports Authority of India, officials said.
