Are you a real estate developer or agent looking to build trust and stay compliant? Understanding RERA registration is your first step! Under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016, is a legal requirement for builders, developers, and real estate agents in India. It aims to bring greater transparency, accountability, and efficiency to the real estate sector. If you’re planning to launch a new residential or commercial project, or operate as a real estate agent, obtaining RERA approval is essential. The registration process helps protect homebuyers’ interests and builds trust by ensuring timely project delivery and accurate disclosures.

RERA registration is mandatory for projects exceeding 500 sq. meters or more than 8 apartments. Exemptions include projects below these thresholds, renovation/repair projects (no new sales), and projects with occupancy/completion certificates issued before RERA came into effect.
Both real estate agents and promoters/developers must register under RERA for facilitating or engaging in transactions for RERA-registered projects.
Promoters/agents must apply for renewal before expiry, typically 60 days to 3 months in advance, submitting updated documents and paying renewal fees. Extensions are granted for valid reasons like force majeure, subject to RERA authority approval.
Builders/promoters can modify the project plan only with the consent of two-thirds of allottees and approval from the regulatory authority.
If RERA does not communicate approval or rejection within 30 days of a complete application, registration is automatically deemed granted.
Only with prior written consent from two-thirds of allottees and approval from RERA authority, a project can be transferred to another promoter under Section 15.
