Maharashtra: 500 builders register as RERA deadline nears

To Register with RERA Click Here Only 8 Days Left   Mumbai:  With the Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) just a fortnight away, more than 500 developers across Maharashtra out of the estimated 9000 have registered on the website so far. The new act directs developers and real estate agents to register on the MahaRERA website. A senior RERA official said that the reason behind the less number of registration is uncertain. He said, “Despite providing a new window for developers to make corrections of obvious errors in the submitted project, the number of registrations on the site has been low. Typographical errors and name correction can be edited through the window.” The official added that the earlier blockage to such provisions deterred developers from uploading their project details. Mayur Shah, newly elected president of MCHI-CREDAI, an association representing the interests of builders, said, that there are over 1000 projects that are yet to be uploaded on the we

Few builders register with RERA (295 projects have been issued certificates by the authority)

With just about a fortnight left for developers to register ongoing projects with Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority (MahaRERA), less than 5% of them have registered with the authority, according to MahaRERA officials. The deadline  for registration of ongoing projects with RERA  is July 31. With an estimated 10,000 plus ongoing projects in the state, only 499 applications have been filed with MahaRERA till July 13, out of which 295 projects have been issued certificates by the authority. Despite having a working RERA website and a regulator from May 1, 2017, the registrations have been low but RERA officials are hopeful that the registrations will be completed by month end, failing which developers will be slapped with 10% penalty. MahaRERA secretary Vasant Prabhu told TOI that the developers will have to register their projects or face huge penalty.

No extension for registrations : RERA Chairman

Sending a stern message, Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority (MahaRERA) Chairman Mr.  Gautam Chatterjee on Saturday 8th July made it clear that builders and developers won't be getting any extension  once the 90-day registration window is over. After becoming the first state to implement the central real estate Act on May 1, the government had given the industry players time till July 31 to get their projects registered on its website maharera.mahaonline.gov.in. However, the real estate watchdog has so far received lukewarm response from the industry. Chatterjee, who spoke to the media during an interactive session organized by CREDAI Nagpur Metro, said that only 10 online applications, including one from Nagpur, were received in May Sharing the dais with CREDAI representatives, Chatterjee directly asked them why their members have failed to get the registration done. "A few days ago, a forwarded post landed in my WhatsApp account. Probably, th

Deadline July 31, but only 350 of 9,000 Maharashtra builders sign up with RERA

MUMBAI: Around 9,000 builders  in the state are expected to register their projects under the  MahaRERA, but only 350 of them have done so since May 1, when the regulations came into effect, reveal MahaRERA authorities. The deadline for registration is July 31. If builders don't register their projects, they face fine under the RERA and even a jail term in case of repeat offence. Industry experts say the poor registration rate might be an effect of the slow pace of construction projects and absence of new launches. Around 80,000 residential units remain unsold in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, which is second after the National Capital Region which has 1.6 lakh unsold units. Explaining the current situation, Ramesh Nair chairman of CII Realty and Infrastructure Conclave and CEO & Country Head, JLL India, said, "The number of new launches has come down and the focus has shifted to completion of existing projects. The profitability has found its l
