2. The relief sought in the present writ petition is for quashing the e-auction which was sought to be fixed for 27.06.2023 whereby, the reserve price of the booth in question bearing Booth No.128, Sector 57, Gurugram-II was fixed at Rs.97,79,000/-. The challenge was on the ground that in an earlier e-auction held on 19.01.2023, the petitioner had auctioned for the said property at Rs.1,33,44,800/- and being the highest bidder, he should have been declared successful. The action of refunding the amount deposited by the petitioner was stated to be without any rhyme or reason and illegal against the e-auction policy dated
