The dream of owning a home in Chandigarh is now closer to reality. The Chandigarh Administration has announced a major e-auction of residential plots starting from the first week of June 2026, offering buyers and investors a golden opportunity to secure premium land in one of India’s most well-planned cities.
This initiative is part of the official 2026–27 property auction calendar, covering residential, commercial, and industrial properties across multiple phases throughout the year.
The Estate Office has already submitted the auction calendar for approval, and a detailed schedule will be released soon.
Chandigarh, often called the “City Beautiful,” is known for:

The residential plots are located in some of Chandigarh’s most sought-after sectors:
These are well-developed areas with excellent connectivity, schools, hospitals, and commercial hubs nearby.
Buyers will have multiple options based on their budget:
This wide range ensures participation from both middle-class buyers and high-end investors.

No delays due to site issues.
