Senior DDA officials said 12.64 lakh application forms were sold and downloaded. Of them, 5.12 lakh forms were finally submitted in different banks authorised by the DDA.

For applicants, it's going to be a tough competition: for each of the 5010 flats, there will be 102 applicants.

"As per our official schedule, we plan to hold the draw of lots for the flats before December 15. As of now, housing department officials are busy scrutinizing each and every form. Successful applicants will be given possession of their flats by mid-January," said Neemo Dhar, DDA spokeswoman.

Dhar said those who don't get lucky in the lottery would get back their registration money from January. "Scrutiny of forms will be completed by November 20. "Once scrutiny is over, we will upload all the forms which will be eligible for the draw in our official website www.dda.org.in." she said.
