How many RINL land parcels have been sold across both phases of the e-auction so far?

  1. A.114
  2. B.150
  3. C.264
  4. D.284

Correct answer

C. 264

Explanation

The correct answer is 264. The first phase, held on 12 October 2026, placed 150 parcels, and the second phase on 3 November 2026 placed another 114, so the two rounds together account for 264 parcels sold for Rs 584.33 crore against a combined reserve price of Rs 497.29 crore.

Option A, 114, counts only the second phase. Option B, 150, counts only the first phase. Option D, 284, is simply not the total of the two rounds and does not match any figure reported for the sale, so it can be ruled out at once. A further round of bidding is planned for the plots that remain unsold, with its dates to be announced later, so the running total will rise beyond 264 in the months ahead. Candidates should note that the two rounds fell within a single month of each other, on 12 October 2026 and 3 November 2026.
