The eighth auction includes art, sports memorabilia and infrastructure models connected with Maharashtra and remains open until 2 October.

By SCULTRA Services Editorial DeskPublished Updated

The eighth PM Mementos e-auction includes 89 objects linked with Maharashtra, ranging from art and religious artefacts to sports memorabilia and models of infrastructure projects.

The official announcement says bidding remains open until 2 October 2026 through the PM Mementos portal. The catalogue includes objects associated with historical figures, regional craft traditions, sporting achievements and recent infrastructure programmes.

Why it matters

A public digital catalogue can widen access to cultural and institutional objects while creating a documented path from listing to sale and stated public-purpose proceeds.

SCULTRA point of view

Trust in the process depends on clear catalogue records, provenance, transparent bidding rules and a published post-auction account of results and proceeds.

Limitations

The release is promotional and does not provide a reserve-price distribution, current bid data, full provenance documentation or final auction results. Those details should be checked on the official portal and after the auction closes.
