Adani Group won the bid with a bid of Rs 5,069 crore, DLF Group submitted a bid of Rs 2,025 crore, and Naman Group's bid was not opened due to technical reasons.

Following that, 20 per cent of the initial investment must be submitted before signing the development agreement, with an additional 20 per cent due upon submission of an integrated master plan.

The redevelopment plan is an integrated residential, commercial, and industrial development approach with a floor space index of more than 4.
