What happens if the highest bid is below the reserve price?

Delegation of PowersDFPRAnnexure

If the highest bid is lower than the reserve price or outside the acceptable tolerance threshold, the e-auction is cancelled. The Competent Authority can then re-auction the lot after re-evaluating and adjusting the reserve price based on market feedback.
