Mhada’s Mumbai board on Tuesday granted offer letters to 158 eligible applicants from the master list of old cessed buildings who had won through a computerised lottery held on Dec 28, 2023. State housing and OBC welfare minister Atul Save, who distributed the letters, announced the waiver of the NOC fee of Rs 70,500 for each of them.
The function was held at the housing agency’s headquarters in Bandra East. Mhada said applicants must fulfill the conditions mentioned in the offer letter and take possession. Failure to do so will result in the cancellation of the allocation without prior notice, and their rights on the master list will be terminated.
Minister Save said, “To ensure the allocation of flats to the 265 eligible tenants/ residents from the master list of old cess buildings, the Board conducted its first computerised lottery on Dec 28, 2023. There were 444 flats available for this lottery. Following requests for re-verification of the documents of winners, Mhada re-verified and found 212 out of the 265 applicants eligible. Allotment letters were issued to 158 of them, and they submitted acceptance letters. Document verification of the remaining 53 is in progress. And the rest of the 54 were asked to submit acceptance letters.”
Mhada’s Mumbai Board will soon conduct a lottery for the sale of 2,000 flats in prime locations of the city.
