Hey there, I see you have a query regarding RERA applicability and to whom is it not applicable. Before I share with you the answer, let me take a moment to tell you the full form of RERA. The acronym stands for Real Estate Regulatory Authority. Take a look below to know more.  RERA was launched in the year 2016. It is a part of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act which aims at protecting the interest of house buyers across the country.  Now you must be wondering to whom RERA is not applicable? RERA does not apply to buildings, promoters, or projects that haven’t been registered under the RERA tribunal of the state. eg. The RERA tribunal in Delhi is separate from the RERA tribunal of Mumbai (MAHA RERA).  If the area of land in question for development is not more than 500 square meters, it will not have RERA applicability. If there are less than eight apartments in the building, a developer does not have to register the building under the RERA state Tribunal.   Further, if the project or building was completed before the RERA act came into force, it will not be applicable. After the commencement of the RERA Act, all promoters, builders, and construction groups have to register themselves and the real estate project with the Real Estate Regulatory Authority.  All the details about the RERA project and its legality have been mentioned in statutory provisions of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act. This is all from my end on RERA applicability. If you have any more questions. Leave them in the comment section below. Keep your options open.

Hi, As already explained by Miss Shrishti in her response, the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act of 2016 created RERA, or the Real Estate Regulatory Authority, with the intention of protecting homebuyers and promoting real estate investments. The Upper House approved the bill for this Parliament of India Act on March 10, 2016. (Rajya Sabha). The RERA Act became operative on May 1 and afterwards. Only 52 of the 92 sections were informed at the time. On May 1, 2017, all other provisions came into force. The applicability of RERA has also been quite clearly explained by Miss Shrishti. But I would like to add a few more points to her response along with explaining a few acts and rules of RERA. So, please continue reading.

RERA Act Applicability

According to Section 84 of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act of 2016, state governments are expected to establish the regulations necessary to implement the Act's provisions no later than six months after it takes effect.
  • The centre, through the HUPA (Housing & Urban Poverty Alleviation) Ministry, published the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016, general rules on October 31, 2016.
  • The Union Territories of Chandigarh, Lakshadweep, Daman & Diu, Dadra & Nagar Haveli, and the Andaman & Nicobar Islands are subject to all of these regulations.
The RERA Act, however, does not apply to projects that have already been completed or for which a completion certificate has been obtained, according to the bench, which was composed of Justices Uday Umesh Lalit, Ajay Rastogi, and Aniruddha Bose. The court dismissed Promoters/Developers' arguments that Articles 14 and 19(1)(g) of the Indian Constitution are violated by Section 3(1) of the Act's first provision.

RERA applicable to whom?

RERA is not applicable if the OC was issued before 1.5.17 when it became effective. If the OC was issued after that date, the builder was obligated to register the property with RERA. Only new and ongoing projects are required to register with RERA. Any project that was finished before July 10, 2017, is exempt from RERA registration. Every project that is currently being built may not necessarily fall within the RERA's jurisdiction. According to the RERA regulations developed by the majority of state governments, a builder is not required to register a project with the RERA Authority if they have applied for or received an occupancy certificate from state authorities because such a project does not meet the definition of an ongoing project. I hope I was able to add more valuable information to the applicability of RERA. Read More: How To Check RERA Registration? How To Check Rera Date? What Is RERA Compliance?
