The Haryana Shahari Vikas Pradhikaran (HSVP), formerly known as HUDA, organizes online auctions for the sale of residential, commercial, and institutional properties via a dedicated e-auction portal. This guide offers a complete walkthrough—from registration to bidding and post-auction formalities—to help you participate effectively.

🔹 Step 3: Acceptance of Auction Terms & Conditions
Why It’s Mandatory:
Before bidding, all participants must acknowledge their understanding of the auction’s terms and legal obligations. This serves as a digital agreement between HSVP and the bidder, minimizing future disputes.
What to Expect:
On first login, the system will prompt you to review the Auction Terms and Conditions.
These include clauses on payment timelines, refund policies, property status, liabilities, and bidder responsibilities.

📌 Pro Tip: Download or save a copy of the terms for future reference, especially regarding refund timelines and property possession clauses.
🔹 Step 4: Payment of e-Service Fee and Earnest Money Deposit (EMD)
Purpose of These Payments:
The e-Service fee covers administrative and portal operation charges.
The EMD ensures that only serious bidders participate. It also acts as a security deposit which may be forfeited in case of default.
A. e-Service Fee:
Amount: ₹1,000 (non-refundable).
How to Pay: Via the online gateway using Debit Card or Internet Banking.
This payment is a prerequisite and must be completed to unlock bidding access.
B. EMD (Earnest Money Deposit):
Options to Pay:
Online: Use Debit Card or Internet Banking directly through the portal.
Offline: Pay via RTGS/NEFT from your bank account.
For RTGS/NEFT Payments:
The portal will generate a pre-filled EMD Challan.
Take a printout of this challan and visit your bank.
Make the payment and ensure funds are credited at least T+1 working days before the auction deadline.
🕒 Timing Tip: Don’t wait until the last day. Banks may delay clearance, and failure to confirm payment will disqualify you from bidding.
🔹 Step 5: Uploading Required Documents
After payment is confirmed, the next step is to upload your documents:
Commonly Required Documents:
PAN Card (Individual/Company)
Aadhaar Card or Company Registration Certificate
Authorization Letter (if applicable)
