Sharing the details, a spokesperson of the department said that under the scheme allottees are required to deposit the defaulted amount at the rate mentioned in allotment letter alongwith simple interest. The outstanding amount is to be deposited in lump-sum and no part/short payment shall be accepted, stated the spokesperson adding that, the scheme is scheduled to close on 19 July, 2021 and will not be extended.
Divulging further the spokesperson said that the allottees who have defaulted in payment of instalments due after 31-12-2013 can avail the benefit of the scheme. Besides, allottees whose allotment has been cancelled due to default in instalments or there is any litigation on this account can also apply under the scheme, he said.
