Applicants should carefully read the property-specific terms, conditions and documents before submitting a bid.
The 13 UIT Jaisalmer properties are not identical . They differ considerably in size, usage, BSP and EMD.
The Swami Vivekanand properties are residential plots , while the Amar Sahid Sagarmal Gopa Block D properties are also residential. The SD Vyas Hotal Complex Scheme includes two commercial plots and one large hotel-use plot .
Buyers should therefore check the permitted use of the property, site and location plans, applicable charges and auction conditions before participating.
It is also important to remember that EMD is only the participation deposit and does not represent the complete cost of acquiring the property.
The UIT Jaisalmer e-auction October 2026 provides an opportunity to bid for 13 plots across three schemes. Residential options start at a BSP-based assessed value of about ₹20.91 lakh , while smaller commercial plots are listed from ₹2.79 lakh . At the other end, the large P-12 hotel plot carries a BSP-based assessed value of about ₹5.89 crore .

The Jaisalmer Urban Improvement Trust (UIT) is preparing to launch one of the biggest land auction initiatives in the city's history by introducing its first-ever farmhouse scheme. Under the ambitious project, 225 farmhouse plots , each measuring 2,000 square metres , will be auctioned at some of the most sought-after locations in Jaisalmer.
The move marks a significant shift from UIT's traditional focus on residential and commercial plots. Officials believe the scheme will not only boost investment in the city's real estate sector but also generate substantial revenue for the authority.
According to UIT officials, this is the first time the authority is entering the farmhouse segment. Until now, land allotments by UIT were primarily limited to residential and commercial plots through lottery systems or auctions.
UIT Secretary Sukharam Pindel said that approximately 225 farmhouse plots of 2,000 square metres each will be allotted through an open auction process. The project has been designed to provide buyers with large land parcels suitable for luxury living, landscaping, farming activities, and recreational developments.
The authority estimates that each farmhouse plot could fetch around ₹17 lakh , taking the total projected revenue to approximately ₹38.15 crore .
Officials expect strong participation from both individual buyers and institutional investors due to the attractive plot sizes and strategic locations.
UIT has identified three premium areas for the farmhouse scheme:
These locations are considered among the fastest-growing real estate corridors in Jaisalmer. Their connectivity to major city areas, highways, and tourism zones is expected to enhance demand significantly.
The authority has fixed the reserve price at ₹790 per square metre , a rate that market observers believe could attract a wide range of buyers.
With a relatively affordable entry price, the scheme is expected to appeal to:
The large plot size of 2,000 square metres gives buyers flexibility to develop customized projects such as:
UIT officials say the concept aims to offer spacious green living environments away from urban congestion while maintaining easy access to city infrastructure.
Industry observers believe the launch could create significant momentum in the Jaisalmer property market. The introduction of large-format farmhouse plots in premium areas is expected to attract fresh investment and increase demand for land in surrounding regions.
The project is also expected to contribute substantially to UIT's revenue generation and support future urban development initiatives.
UIT has indicated that a detailed notification covering:
will be released shortly.
With premium locations, large plot sizes, and competitive reserve pricing, the upcoming Jaisalmer UIT Farmhouse Auction is likely to emerge as one of Rajasthan's most closely watched real estate opportunities.
