Buyer questions
Frequently asked questions.
Are the petrol-pump sites being sold?+
CDA's release describes the seven sites as one package on a 20-year rental basis. It does not describe them as a freehold sale.
Can any individual bid for the petrol-pump package?+
The official release restricts that session to registered Oil Marketing Companies. The revised brochure should be used to confirm complete eligibility and bid documentation.
When can a hotel-plot bidder obtain possession?+
CDA states possession may be handed over after 75% payment, subject to a valid bank guarantee from a local scheduled bank for the remaining balance. Final contract and brochure terms control.
Are CDA's 5% rebates automatic?+
No assumption should be made. CDA lists a 5% rebate for total payment within 30 days and an additional 5% for full payment in USD; bidders should confirm eligibility, timing, payment channel and written application in the revised brochure.
01
What CDA announced on 8 October 2026
CDA's official page announces commercial real-estate auctions over two days at Jinnah Convention Center, Islamabad. Five hotel plots are scheduled for 12 October 2026 at 10:00 am. Seven petrol-pump sites are scheduled for 13 October 2026 under a separate rental-package structure.
02
Hotel-plot payment and possession terms
CDA publishes a one-year flexible payment schedule for successful hotel-plot bidders. It says building-plan approvals may be granted after a 25% deposit, while possession may be handed over after 75% payment if the bidder supplies a valid guarantee from a local scheduled bank for the remaining balance. These are auction terms, not proof that a submitted building plan will automatically satisfy every technical requirement.
03
Payment rebates and overseas-bidder channel
The release lists a 5% rebate on total payment made within 30 days and an additional 5% rebate for full payment in USD. It also says overseas investors can obtain a token at least one day before the auction and use a Roshan Digital Account or local banking channel. Bidders should confirm currency conversion, remittance evidence, rebate calculation and refund rules in the revised CDA brochure before transferring funds.
04
Petrol-pump package is OMC-only and rental-based
CDA says all seven petrol-pump sites will be offered together as one 20-year rental package to registered Oil Marketing Companies. The published token money is PKR 25 million. Monthly rent will be determined through open bidding, paid in advance and subject to 10% annual escalation. The successful OMC bears construction, development, utilities, statutory approvals, taxes and licensing costs.
05
Completion period is not an operating licence
CDA gives the successful OMC a maximum of five months for construction and completion of the sites, or earlier completion. This timeline does not replace petroleum-sector licensing, environmental, building, safety, utility or other statutory approvals. Investors should not calculate operating income until all required licences and opening conditions are independently verified.
06
Before bidding or funding a bidder
Obtain the revised brochure from CDA's One Window Directorate, listed bank branches or the official CDA website. Verify reserve price, bidder eligibility, token and refund rules, bid security, title or lease rights, permitted use, building controls, taxes, bank-guarantee wording, default consequences and dispute terms. The auction announcement does not guarantee a winning bid, construction approval, rental income, resale value or investment return.
