The online bidding commenced at 10 am today and closed at 3 pm.

Giving details, LIT Chairman Raman Balasubramanium said bids were offered for some other properties put on the block as well, but in some cases, the amount was below the market price or else the number of bidders was less than three.

Besides, seven residential plots at Kitchlu Nagar have found buyers.
