Mohali: PSIEC sells all 15 industrial plots for ₹60 crore in comeback auction
Each 500-square-yard plot carried a reserve price of ₹1.95 crore. While most plots fetched around ₹7 crore each, one went for as high as ₹8.5 crore, over four times its base price.
The auction raked in a whopping ₹60 crore approximately — more than double the total reserve price of ₹29.25 crore. All plots will be allotted against a 99-year lease.
This was PSIEC's first auction of 500-square-yard plots since the introduction of its new auction policy in January 2019. Before this, industrial plots were allotted on the basis of draw of lots. In its last auction in April 2021, the corporation had sold five commercial sites sized over 1 acre.
A senior PSIEC official said, 'We are extremely satisfied with the response, which clearly indicates a revival in Mohali's real estate and industrial investment climate.'
As part of a wider initiative, from May 26, PSIEC began auctioning 260 industrial plots across various focal points in Punjab, including Abohar, Amritsar, Batala, Goindwal Sahib, Kapurthala, Ludhiana, Mandi Gobindgarh, Mohali, Nawanshahr and Pathankot. The plot sizes range from 500 square yards to 6 acres.
In Mohali alone, PSIEC will be offering plots between 500 square yards and 5,000 square yards in industrial zones, such as Phase 7, 8-A, 8-B, 9.
Pritpal Singh Dhindsa, president of the IT Association in Phase 8-A, Mohali, said, 'Investors are showing increased confidence in PSIEC due to their industry-friendly policies and ease of doing business. A Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 3 is being offered for these plots — a significant advantage over private players, especially for IT set-ups.'
PSIEC Limited, a state government undertaking, has been instrumental in promoting industrial growth in Punjab by developing Industrial Focal Points (IFPs) ranging from 50 to 500 acres in key towns and cities across the state.
In its last auction in Mohali in April 2021, when it sold five commercial sites, an industrial site in Phase-8-A (CP-4), measuring 1.98 acres, had brought in ₹81 crore against the reserve price of ₹28 crore.
CP-3 site in Phase 8-A (1.98 acres) was sold for ₹58.50 crore against the reserve price of ₹28 crore and CP-2 in Phase 8-A (1.98 acres) had gone for ₹69.61 crore against the reserve price of ₹28 crore.
In Phase 9, site 1 (1.35 acres) was auctioned for ₹29 crore against the reserve price of ₹26 crore, while site-2 (1.15 acres) got the highest bid of ₹26 crore against the reserve price of ₹22 crore.

Plans afoot to develop over 13,000 km of roads: Telangana DY CM Bhatti
HYDERABAD: Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka on Tuesday said that the state government has decided to develop 13,137 km of roads — 7,947 km under Panchayat Raj department and 5,190 km under R&B department in 17 packages. The government will soon call for tenders for these road projects and start the works at the earliest, he added. The deputy CM was speaking at the 'Telangana Road Development Programme Roadshow Hybrid Annuity Model' meeting organised jointly by Panchayat Raj and R&B departments at HICC in Hyderabad to financially encourage contractors and bankers. Roads & Buildings Minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy and Panchayat Raj Minister Dansari Anasuya alias Seethakka also attended the meeting. Stating that the state government was aware of the problems being faced by the contractors, Vikramarka explained: 'The previous government had entered into several agreements for development works worth `1.75 lakh crore and it also issued tokens for works worth `45,000 crore. However, it failed to clear those dues, leaving behind a financial burden on the present government.' 'With the chief minister, ministers, and government secretaries focusing on resolving this matter, the financial situation is gradually improving and the government is working to overcome the difficulties faced by contractors,' he added. The deputy CM said that the Congress government considers contractors, industrialists and investors as partners in wealth creation. 'In view of the growing traffic problems, there is a need to upgrade some roads into four-lane roads,' he said and instructed the officials to prepare the list of roads that need attention at the earliest and place it before the state Cabinet for approval. He said that the government will contribute 40 per cent of funds for HAM roads and is in the process of mobilising necessary resources. Small contractors will be given opportunities in HAM road works, he asserted.
