A total of 1,168 flats were constructed at the Village under PPP mode by Emmar MGF and DDA's share of 711 flats include 333 flats which were bought from the private developer by the government agency under a buy back arrangement.

DDA had paid Rs 760 crore to Emaar-MGF under the buy back arrangement. Roy said DDA, at a meeting last month, had decided to allot over 600 flats to government departments and PSUs by issuing a circular.

On auctioning the flats to the general public, he said a committee will be set up to ascertain the reserve price for the flats.

Last month, the government had decided to confiscate Rs 183 crore bank guarantee furnished by the builder after DDA found "irregularities" and deficiencies in the Games Village.
