An allegation is not a new reserve price.
After the auction headlines, the master plan is the story
For anyone searching property in Mohali, Eco City Mohali, New Chandigarh Mohali.
Swarajya’s 26 September report says the ED’s questions now include land-use changes, Kurali’s villages, and delays at Aerotropolis and Eco City.
On 26 September 2026 Swarajya reported that, a day after the Enforcement Directorate’s reserve-price allegations, the agency was also looking at this year’s land-use changes. The details that matter to a buyer are concrete. One is a proposal covering 78 villages in the Kurali area, including talk of reclassifying pockets as green. Another is GMADA’s January conversion of large Sector 62 commercial parcels into mixed use — the same 27.78 acres that later sold for ₹1,742.31 crore. A third is a January amendment that re-planned a parcel near Eco City-1, earlier meant as a truck terminal.
The report also says investigators were asking whether delays at Aerotropolis and at Eco City 2 and 3, despite letters of intent, had the effect of helping private players sell stock they already held. That is an allegation about incentives. It is also a plain description of the risk you take in a pocket where the road is still a line.
How not to overreact
Do not freeze a sensible Phase 7 purchase because a Kurali village might be re-zoned. Do not ‘average down’ into Aerotropolis because a news article used the word delay. Do ask, in writing, which pocket, which acquisition status, and which infrastructure contract is awarded. If the seller cannot answer, you have your answer.
