Synopsis: Bank auction properties are generally sold under the SARFAESI Act, 2002 to individuals to buy residential, commercial or industrial properties, at the reserve price of which is lesser than the prevailing market price. Investors experienced 10% to 20% savings by purchasing NPA properties, as per the 2023 Knight Frank survey.
National Institute of Financial Management (NIFM) study in 2024, found that Indian banks recovered ₹1.35 lakh crore from NPA auctions in the year 2023 alone. As, unlike open market transactions, auction properties carry a bank-verified paper trail, a publicly declared reserve price, and a court-proof sale certificate issued under SARFAESI which reduces the title complication and negotiation risk for the buyers significantly.
