Rail Land Development Authority (RLDA) on Thursday invited online bids for leasing four land parcels cumulatively spanning 7.36 acres in Chennai for the period of 45 years.

"Chennai has emerged as a real estate hotspot due to the growth of the IT/ITes sector, infrastructural developments and conducive policy landscape over the past few years. These sites possess excellent location and connectivity. The real estate development at these sites will bolster prices, generate employment opportunities and boost the local economy," said Ved Prakash Dudeja, Vice Chairman, RLDA.

He further said that the lessees of these sites will be mandated to carry out development as per local building bye-laws and complete the developer portion within ten years.

"The selected bidder will be required to procure all necessary clearances for the same. He/she will be permitted to market and sub-lease Built-up Area for any lawful activity," he added.

According to the RLDA, the Waltax Road parcel which spans 1116.67 square meters with an FSI of 1.5, is kept at the reserve price of Rs 4.19 crore and the deadline for bid submission is informed to be February 26.

The upcoming development projects include Chennai Metro, the Comprehensive Infrastructure Road Development Programme of Tamil Nadu, and the up-gradation of the Chennai International Airport which will further bolster the real estate prospects in the city.
