A total 274 apartments, including seven penthouses and 138 super HIG flats, being offered by the DDA in e-auction mode as part of its new housing scheme, were booked on Friday, officials said.
The registration for these flats began on November 30 and the e-auction began on Friday.
"In today's e-auction, a total 274 flats were booked, including 129 MIG flats, 138 super HIG flats and seven penthouses," a senior official said.
There was "fierce competition" among the bidders during the entire process, signifying "high demand for DDA (Delhi Development Authority) flats," he said.
The premium received was as much as 80 per cent in some cases, the DDA official said.
The 'Diwali Special Housing Scheme - 2023' entails the disposal of newly built or soon-to-be completed flats through an end-to-end online system.
