What to check first
Compare shops, food uses and platforms in the renovated Kaloor Market. The rent and common-maintenance columns are separate.
Notice, page 1
What can change before the rental is awarded?
GCDA’s Secretary may postpone or reject the tender and auction without giving a reason, so even the highest offer is not guaranteed the rental. If 12 October is a holiday, the notice moves the tender and auction to the next working day. These are terms of the invitation; they do not mean this sitting has been postponed or rejected.
Notice, page 1
What must accompany a tender?
The notice requires GCDA’s prescribed form, the offered rent per square foot and ₹50,000 earnest money by demand draft in favour of Secretary, GCDA, Kochi. The form costs ₹590. The published timetable is 12 October 2026: form issue until 12:00 PM IST, sealed-tender receipt at the Estate Department until 1:00 PM IST and public auction at GCDA’s office at 3:00 PM IST. These are offline steps; downloading this notice does not submit a tender. The notice does not say whether or when GCDA returns the ₹50,000 demand draft to bidders who are not chosen, or whether the ₹590 form fee is refundable. Ask GCDA before you submit.
October, July, June and February 2026 authority notices
Has GCDA offered these premises before?
Yes. GCDA has offered this market under the same reference at least four times in 2026. Its notices of 27 February and 11 June also listed 58 entries, including chicken stall 20, for sittings on 7 March and 18 June. The 27 July notice listed 57 entries for a 13 August sitting and left out chicken stall 20 (8.82 m² / 94.94 ft², minimum rent ₹55/ft²); October lists it again. The notices do not say what happened at the earlier sittings.
The minimum-rent column prints ₹45/ft² for shops 67–84, ₹55/ft² for mini supermarket 85, food court 86 and the listed fish, chicken, meat and vegetable stalls, ₹65/ft² for atrium shops 53–65, and ₹105/ft² for the front-yard shops and fish/vegetable platforms. Common maintenance of ₹43/ft² is printed separately on 57 rows; Shop 63’s maintenance cell is blank, like its area. The notice does not state a billing period for either charge, so these are not labelled monthly or annual rates and are not added into a contract total.
Schedule, pages 2–4
