According to the statement by CIDCO, applicants—who have paid the entire instalments—will get one month's time starting June 1 to pay the remaining miscellaneous charges, and then CIDCO will hand over the possession of the houses from July 1. In cases where instalments were unpaid, such applicants have been given an extension till July 31 to pay the remaining amount, said the release.
