The Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) has extended the deadline for submission of applications for its Pune-region housing lottery offering 4,186 flats, giving applicants time until 11:59 p.m. on November 30, 2025 to complete the process.

The extension was announced by the Pune Housing and Area Development Board, MHADA’s regional arm, following widespread requests from citizens who encountered technical issues and delays in document verification.


📈 Over 1.82 Lakh Applications Received So Far

MHADA has already received 1,82,781 online applications, of which 1,33,885 have been submitted along with the earnest money deposit (EMD).
Officials said the extension provides a final opportunity for applicants who were unable to complete the process due to verification challenges.

EMD payments can be made:

  • Online: Until 11:59 p.m. on November 30
  • RTGS/NEFT: Until the close of banking hours on December 1

The computerized draw will now take place on December 11, 2025, at 12:00 noon.


📝 Why the Deadline Was Extended

According to officials, many applicants experienced technical issues during document uploads and verification, resulting in incomplete applications.
Additionally, several citizens requested more time to arrange documentation and complete payments.

Recognizing the heavy response and public demand, the Pune Board granted this one-time, final extension. MHADA noted that the revised schedule will be published on its official website, while all other conditions remain unchanged from earlier advertisements.
