The deadline for application was extended by a month till June 10, after it received a not-so-encouraging response.
“As many as 17,922 flats are on offer in four categories — HIG, MIG, LIG and EWS,” a senior DDA official had said.
For the economically weaker section category, the application fee was fixed at Rs 25,000, for LIG it was Rs 1 lakh and for MIG and HIG flats Rs 2 lakh.
On June 11, DDA’s vice-chairman Tarun Kapoor attributed the poor response from applicants to the bulk of flats being located in Narela are in outer Delhi, among other factors.
Recently, the DDA had approved a proposal to reduce the cost of EWS flats in Narela, part of the online Housing Scheme 2019, “by up to 40 per cent of the construction cost”.
The modified rates would apply to allottees of the current scheme.
In case of leftover flats, it would be re-advertised soon at reduced rates. This will make these flats available at concessional rates to the economically weaker section, it had said.
