MHADA Extends Mumbai Commercial Premises E-Auction Registration Deadline To September 8

The Mumbai Housing and Area Development Board (MHADA) has extended the deadline for participation in the ongoing e-auction of commercial properties across the city, offering applicants additional time to complete registration, upload documents, and submit the required earnest money deposit. The revised deadline for all formalities is now 11:59 PM on September 8, 2025, with the e-auction itself scheduled for September 10, from 11 AM to 5 PM. Results are expected on September 11 at 11 AM.

This extension reflects MHADA’s effort to ensure equitable access for prospective bidders and to encourage wider participation in a process that supports sustainable commercial development in Mumbai. The e-auction applies to premises in multiple housing projects, including key localities such as Mulund, Kurla, Powai, Borivali, Kandivali, Sion, Wadala, Malad, Goregaon, and Jogeshwari. A total of 163 commercial units are on offer, with the largest concentration at Malvani, Malad, where 46 units will be auctioned. Kopri and Charkop each have 23 units up for sale, while Powai’s Tunga and Kurla’s Swadeshi Mill sites offer two and five units, respectively. Other locations such as Mulund Gavanpada, Borivali East, Kandivali West, Pratiksha Nagar, Antop Hill, and Bimbisar Nagar also feature multiple units, providing diverse options for investors and entrepreneurs. Single units are available at Shastri Nagar, Siddharth Nagar, and Majaswadi.

Eligibility criteria remain clear: applicants must be at least 18 years old and provide a domicile certificate issued in Maharashtra after 2018. The e-auction requires an earnest money deposit corresponding to the property’s offset price. All registration, payment, and document submission must be completed through MHADA’s official e-auction portal www.eauction.mhada.gov.in. Officials emphasise that the digital auction mechanism aligns with MHADA’s commitment to transparency, efficiency, and sustainable urban growth. By promoting online bidding, the board aims to reduce the environmental impact associated with physical auctions while expanding accessibility for stakeholders across the city and beyond. The platform also ensures secure transactions and real-time monitoring of bidding activity.

Experts in urban planning note that such e-auctions can encourage commercial occupancy within residential clusters, enhancing local economies while adhering to guidelines for sustainable development. Properly managed, these commercial spaces can contribute to equitable growth by providing small businesses, retail operators, and service providers with opportunities in Mumbai’s rapidly evolving housing hubs. MHADA’s decision to extend the deadline underscores its intention to balance administrative efficiency with public participation, reflecting a wider trend in Indian cities to leverage technology for inclusive urban development. As the auction date approaches, authorities continue to monitor submissions closely and advise applicants to ensure compliance with all procedural requirements to secure their chance to bid.
