MHADA Mumbai Lottery Reserves 47 Flats for Lawmakers as Applications Pass 3,300

The carve-out follows legal quotas that keep a small share for elected officials.

Overview

  • MHADA said 47 of the 2,640 homes are set aside for sitting and former MPs and MLAs, and the most expensive Tardeo unit falls in this pool.
  • The authority reported more than 3,300 applications as of 7:30 pm on April 1, with applications due April 29 and earnest money accepted until April 30.
  • The draw spans 97 locations across the city, with prices from just over ₹29 lakh to ₹6.82 crore across income groups from EWS to HIG.
  • About 1,762 homes, or roughly two thirds, are still under construction in Vikhroli, Goregaon and Borivali, which could extend the wait for possession.
  • A Free Press Journal report highlighted a 1,408 sq ft Magathane, Borivali flat at ₹2.53 crore with a per‑sq‑ft price under ₹18,000, well below nearby projects.
