The scheme spans several well-connected and established neighbourhoods including:
- HIG apartments with spacious plinth spaces and prime locations in Jasola, Rohini, Vasant Kunj, Ghazipur, and Dwarka.
- MIG units at Dwarka, Jahangirpuri, Loknayakpuram, Nand Nagri, Dilshad Garden, Madhipur, and other places.
- LIG units spread through Karol Bagh, Dev Nagar, Dwarka, Mansarovar Park, Mukarji Park, Rohini, Rampura, Paschim Vihar, Shalimar Bagh, and Vikaspuri.
- Janta and EWS flats, including units in Shahpur Jat, Ashok Nagar (Faiz Road), Kondli Gharoli and Nasirpur Dwarka.
- Garages are also being auctioned in areas like Pitampura, Rohini, Mall Road and Ashok Vihar.
The reserve prices range widely depending on location, size, and category; HIG apartments attract higher base values, while LIG and Janta sectors provide more reasonably priced possibilities. Under the initiative, apartments beginning at ₹12.63 lakh are being offered in prominent locales, such as Dwarka Mor. The e-auction bids will decide the final prices.
