The Pune board has ramped up efforts for its latest housing draw, having already successfully conducted two draws earlier in 2024. A few days ago, the board announced its third draw, prompting the commencement of the application sale and acceptance process for 6,294 houses in the Pune division area. The process officially began at 12 noon on Thursday, allowing applicants to submit their applications by paying a deposit. The acceptance process will continue until November 12, with computerized deposit submissions closing at 5 pm that day. Additionally, banks can accept applications until 3 pm on November 13 through RTGS or NEFT during office hours. Following this, the sale and acceptance process will conclude, and the scrutiny of the applications will begin.
After the scrutiny of applications, a draft list of eligible applicants will be published on November 23 at 7 pm on the MHADA website (https://housing.mhada.gov.in). Following the submission of suggestions and objections from applicants, the final list will be released on November 30. The results of the draw will be announced on December 5 in Pune.
