The Bank of Baroda auction timeline
A typical BoB property auction follows this sequence. Exact dates are always in the sale notice.
- Sale notice published in newspapers and online, usually at least 30 days before the auction for immovable property under SARFAESI rules.
- Inspection window, when interested buyers can visit the property.
- EMD and KYC deadline, usually a few days before the auction.
- E-auction day, with a fixed start time, bid increment and auto-extension rules.
- Confirmation and payment: the winning bidder typically pays 25% of the bid amount (including EMD) soon after the sale, and the remaining 75% within the period stated in the notice.
- Sale certificate issued after full payment, which you then register.
If the winning bidder misses the payment deadline, the deposit paid can be forfeited and the property re-auctioned. Plan financing before you bid.
Bank of Baroda notices: fields to check
- Borrower name and branch (useful for searching related litigation).
- Property description, area and boundaries.
- Reserve price, EMD and bid increment.
- Possession status: physical or symbolic.
- Known encumbrances and statutory dues.
- Authorised Officer's name and phone number.
Public facts such as reserve price, EMD, city and auction date are free on every eAuctionHunt listing. The full official notice and attached documents are available with a ₹99 single-notice unlock.
Finance and EMD tips
- Arrange a loan early. Some lenders finance auction purchases, but approval takes time; you will usually need the sale notice and valuation details.
- Keep EMD money separate. If you do not win, EMD is refunded according to the notice terms. Read how EMD refunds work.
- Budget beyond the bid. Add stamp duty, registration charges, any outstanding dues and renovation.
Re-auctions and price drops
When a BoB property does not sell, the bank may re-auction it, sometimes with a lower reserve price. Re-auctions are worth tracking but check why the earlier attempt failed — possession or title issues are common reasons.

Before you bid: the checklist that applies to every bank
- Read the full sale notice, not just a listing summary. The notice is the legal document; it defines the property, reserve price, EMD, deadlines and the e-auction platform.
- Check possession type. Physical possession means the bank holds the keys. Symbolic possession means you may need further legal steps after winning. Read our guide on the SARFAESI auction process first.
- Verify title and dues with your own lawyer: encumbrance certificate, property tax, society maintenance and electricity arrears. Bank sales are usually on an "as is where is, as is what is" basis.
- Inspect the property on the inspection date mentioned in the notice.
- Understand EMD refunds before you pay. See EMD refund rules and timelines.
- Prepare documents early: PAN, Aadhaar/KYC, and a digital signature certificate if the platform requires one.
