The Excise Department in Bihar’s Siwan district has initiated the auction process for 82 vehicles seized in liquor-related cases across various police stations.
According to officials, the vehicles include motorcycles, auto-rickshaws, cars and other four-wheelers that were confiscated during enforcement drives against illegal liquor activities in the district.
The Transport Department has assessed and fixed the minimum reserve price for each vehicle. A detailed list of the vehicles proposed for auction has been displayed near the Excise Office, allowing interested bidders to review the details in advance.
The public auction will be held at the Excise Sadar Police Station premises on the following dates:
March 13, 2026
March 20, 2026
March 28, 2026
Excise Superintendent Vipin Kumar said interested bidders can visit the police station to inspect the vehicles listed for auction.
Officials stated that bidding will start from the minimum price determined by the Transport Department, and the highest bidder will be declared the winner of the vehicle.
Participants must deposit 10% of the minimum reserve price as a security amount before taking part in the auction. The successful bidder will be required to immediately deposit the full auction amount with the District Prohibition and Excise Office after the bidding concludes.
Vehicles marked as ‘scrap’ in the auction list will not be eligible for registration, and fresh registration cannot be obtained for them. In such cases, the responsibility for cutting, transporting and weighing the vehicle will rest with the auction purchaser.
Officials noted that previous auctions saw limited participation. Last year, the department planned to auction 47 vehicles on July 31, 2025, but only 22 vehicles were sold due to low bidder interest.
Similarly, another auction held on August 22, 2025, included 46 vehicles, but again only 22 vehicles were successfully auctioned.
Authorities hope the upcoming auctions will attract more bidders and help dispose of the seized vehicles pending with the department.
