Fresh Auction for Commercial Plot in Verna Estate: A Litmus Test for Goa's Industrial Hub
Real Estate:The Goa Industrial Development Corporation (GIDC) is set to hold a fresh auction for a commercial plot in Verna Industrial Estate, after being dissatisfied with the bids received during the previous e-auction. The plot, designated for a hotel, received a bid of INR 8,600 per square meter, which was deemed unreasonable by GIDC managing director Pravimal Abhishek.

The fresh auction aims to fetch a price closer to the market rate, with the commercial plots at Verna Industrial Estate ranging from 2,000 to 5,100 square meters. In March, GIDC successfully auctioned 16 industrial plots via e-auction, earning INR 156.6 crores. The corporation has now started issuing allotment letters for these plots. The re-auction will be closely watched as an indicator of investment demand and real estate market recovery in Goa's industrial hub. The sizable industrial and commercial developments in the area have made the plots highly sought after, and GIDC remains determined to achieve satisfactory prices for its inventory of available plots.
