RERA Registration

RERA Registration

Under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016, all ongoing and new real estate projects are required to register with the respective State RERA Authorities. This registration is mandatory to ensure transparency and protect the interests of property buyers.

RERA has played a significant role in bringing more structure and accountability to the real estate sector in India. While real estate is a key economic driver in many developed countries, India has taken major steps through RERA to improve trust and efficiency in the industry.

  • RERA promotes transparency in property transactions
  • It holds builders and developers accountable for timely project completion
  • RERA registration builds credibility and trust with buyers
  • It ensures compliance with legal and financial standards

Overview of RERA Registration

To bring greater transparency to real estate transactions, the Government of India introduced the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, commonly known as RERA, in 2016. This landmark legislation was enacted after years of irregularities and lack of accountability in the real estate sector, often dominated by influential developers.

Under Section 3 of the RERA Act, all ongoing and upcoming real estate projects must be registered with the respective State RERA Authorities. The Act aims to safeguard the interests of homebuyers, sellers, brokers, and other stakeholders by enforcing fair practices and promoting trust in the industry.

RERA has significantly improved the relationship between buyers and promoters by establishing clear legal guidelines for registration, project timelines, and accountability. One of its key strengths is helping developers avoid delays caused by administrative hurdles—reducing their dependence on unfair practices and supporting smoother project execution.
