Printed lots/items are: Sr. 1: 2 shops, size 12 x 13 feet, annual bid/rent amount **PKR 13,500**, security deposit **PKR 8,000**. Sr. 2: 3 shops, size 12 x 13 feet, annual bid/rent amount **PKR 13,000**, security deposit **PKR 8,000**.

Participants should attend the open auction with original CNIC and the required security/deposit instrument as directed by the council. Bidders should also ensure that they have read all lease conditions, including provisions regarding payment default, cancellation, forfeiture of security and any liability for utility charges or other dues. The council reserves the right to accept or reject bids and may cancel proceedings in accordance with applicable rules. A bidder whose lease is cancelled for breach of conditions may face forfeiture of deposited amounts.

Practical tip: inspect each shop personally, obtain written confirmation of the payable annual rent, deposit, escalation mechanism and handover terms, and bring all original identity and payment documents well before the announced auction time.
