Don’t be in hurry to book flat 

there are hardly any buyers of flats 

wait till RERA approval then only purchase flat 

That's completely illegal

Without the project being registered with Rera, the builder cannot sell any flat or take any booking amount from the buyer 

Please dont fall in such a trap. It's an offence under Rera which invites a penalty 

Tell the salesperson not to misrepresent and that you will report this to Rera that builder is selling the flats without a valid Rera registration 

And Rera does not APPROVE any project. It only registers the project so that the buyers know all the required details about the project which the builder has to upload compulsorily on the Rera online portal 

I'm shocked this nonsense is still happening and people are being trapped by dishonest builders 

Please record all that transpired and how the builder is illegally trying to sell the flat to you in a recording email 

Please check the Maharera website for all the details 

It's better you wait till rera approval nowadays all builders are already rera approved  builders. If you need any further assistance then you can approach me through kaanoon or LinkedIn.

No, most of the builders don't keep their word as per the agreement. 

Because internal layout builders plan is different and RERA approval is different. 

Plus most of the under construction work are stopped due to covid so you can ask completion date of the project. If he is telling you till 2025 then that project will be get completed around 2028. 

I will suggest go for ready to move property instead of under construction property.

[1] It is better you can get a legal opinion from the local advocate. With my rich experience one thing  I will tell you  once the builder is get the approval from the RERA then only you can proceed. Suppose for any other reasons. Builder will not get approval then you are in trouble.

- Legally a builder cannot sell any flat without getting approval from RERA 

- Hence, you may face trouble after depositing the booking amount in case there is hindrance for getting approval .

Ask them for the RERA registration number. Book the flat with them by signing the Builder Buyer Agreement only once the project is approved by RERA. 

You can book the flat by paying a token amount, however with a condition that the builder will issue a receipt for this booking amount and that in case of cancellation of the booking the entire booking amount shall be refunded. Before that you may ascertain the details of the property properly before booking the flat.

Dear Client,

According to Section 14 (2) of the RERA Act, 2016, the promoter has no right to make any additions or alterations after the plan is sanctioned, without any prior written consent owning that apartment. Thus, in this case, such changes to the sanctioned plan can only be valid if you provide written consent for such change, and hence, the promoter would have to sanction such request for alteration to RERA.

Looking into the matter, our advice would be, to have a frank conversation with the sales person and a written agreement between you and the sales person considering such process, and once both the parties are satisfied, you can go ahead and book the flat as and when you may deem fit.

Thank you.
