Kataka Bali Jatra plot registration deadline extended by one day
The Story in Brief
The deadline for the Kataka Bali Jatra plot registration has been extended by one day. Saturday, 31 October 2026 is now the last date for plot allotment. More than 1,300 plot registrations have been completed so far.
This year the fair will have over 500 stalls in the Upper Bali Jatra ground and more than 1,500 stalls in the Lower Ground, totalling over 2,000 stalls. The auction process will run from 2 to 10 November. The Bali Jatra is scheduled to be held from 24 November to 1 December.
The plot registration was originally conducted in two phases: the first from 10 to 17 October and the second from 26 to 30 October at Barabati Palace. The one-day extension follows.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The extended deadline gives traders one more day to secure plots after registrations crossed 1,300. With more than 2,000 stalls planned across two grounds, the administration must still conduct auctions from 2 November to fill the remaining slots. The success of the 24 November opening depends on how quickly those plots are allotted and paid for in the next week.
