Bhubaneswar Development Authority (BDA) has extended the deadline for online applications for its Ekamra Residency housing project at Subudhipur to November 30. The earlier deadline was October 31. The project, spread across 7.34 acres, offers 496 flats of 2BHK and 2BHK-plus-study types across two blocks.

The allotment will be done through a lottery system. The Rs 10,000 application fee will be adjusted against the final flat cost. Unsuccessful applicants will get a full refund of their Rs 2.1 lakh deposit. Successful allottees will get a complete exemption from GST and a 5 per cent exemption on stamp duty. The ready-to-move-in apartments come with one year of complimentary maintenance and earthquake-resistant RCC structures.
Applicants need a Unique Account Number (UAN) and valid documents for date of birth and residential address.
The extension gives a month to applicants who might have missed the October 31 deadline, but the total 496 flats on offer are limited. The Rs 2.1 lakh deposit is fully refundable for unsuccessful applicants, and the Rs 10,000 application fee is adjusted against the flat cost. The lottery-based allotment and freehold title aim to attract buyers. With the extended November 30 deadline, BDA has set the next concrete step.
