To check RERA registration before buying an apartment in a new construction project, search the official RERA portal for the state or Union territory where the project is located, then compare its record with the exact unit and promises in the sales documents. Do this before paying a booking amount, signing an allotment letter or agreeing to a payment schedule. Registration confirms that the project has a regulatory record; it does not guarantee clear title, construction quality, on-time completion or a fair agreement.
What does RERA registration tell an apartment buyer?
The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 sets the national legal framework for project registration and buyer disclosures. In general, a covered project must be registered with the competent state or Union-territory authority before the promoter advertises, markets, books or sells it. The applicable rules and portal are jurisdiction-specific, and the Act provides statutory exemptions, so a missing search result needs investigation rather than an automatic conclusion that the project is unlawful.

The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs summarizes the registration requirement in its RERA FAQs. The Act itself establishes a public-disclosure framework that can include registration details, sanctioned and layout plans, specifications, stage-wise completion schedules and periodic project-status information. The promoter’s disclosure duties are also set out in Section 11.
That record is a useful due-diligence source, not a blanket safety certificate. A registration entry does not, by itself, prove that the promoter owns clear title to the land, that every encumbrance has been resolved, that construction will meet your expectations, or that the project will be delivered by the date you were told. It does not replace reading the agreement or checking approvals and land documents.

Where do I check a RERA number?
Use the official RERA website for the state or Union territory where the apartment project is physically located—not the developer’s headquarters or a commercial property listing site. The Ministry FAQ directs users to the relevant authority’s website for project information. State portals use different names and layouts for their public-search tools; look for a registered-project, project-search or similar function.
Start from an official government or ministry source to identify the competent authority and reach its portal. The Kerala RERA public information page, for example, illustrates the type of project registration and public-search information a state authority may provide. It is an example, not the portal to use for a project in another jurisdiction. Check the live entry and current uploaded documents on the authority’s own site.

If the promoter gives you a registration number, do not search only that number. Search the project name and the promoter’s legal name too. A number can be mistyped, attached to a different phase, or presented without enough context to identify the apartment you are considering.

How do I verify a new apartment project’s registration?
Gather the project name, promoter’s legal name, full site address and the registration number supplied by the sales team. Then work through the portal record and compare it with the brochure, booking form and draft agreement. A short, careful check is more useful than simply seeing a number printed on a marketing document.
- Confirm the correct authority. Identify the state or Union territory in which the construction site is located and open that jurisdiction’s official RERA portal. Do not rely on a search result from a third-party lookup service as proof of current status.
- Search more than one way. Use the exact project name, promoter name and registration number if available. Try reasonable name variations if the first search returns nothing, but verify any result against the actual address and promoter identity.
- Match the project identity. Check the promoter’s legal name, project name, phase or tower, address and survey or plot details against the sales documents. Confirm that the registration number belongs to this project and the part of it being sold to you.
- Check the phase carefully. Large developments may have separate registrations for different phases. Do not assume that a registration for one phase or tower covers another separately marketed phase. Ask the promoter to identify the relevant record for your unit and verify that record on the authority portal.
- Read the dates and status. Note the declared completion date, any extension information, published construction-status updates, and any revocation, corrective order or other order shown. If the sales team promises a different possession date, ask for the basis in writing and for any underlying authority order that explains the difference.
- Open the disclosed documents. Review the sanctioned plans, layout, specifications, approvals, promoter information and land or encumbrance disclosures that are available. Check periodic updates where the portal publishes them. Save the actual documents or dated copies of the pages you relied on.
- Compare the apartment and the contract. Match the unit or tower, carpet area, parking, amenities, possession date, payment schedule and cancellation terms in the draft agreement against the portal record and the promoter’s written commitments. Resolve discrepancies before signing or paying.
- Keep an evidence file. Save the registration certificate or entry, portal printout, disclosed plans, brochure, emails, receipts, allotment letter and draft or signed agreement together. A folder or document organizer can help keep records in order, but storing a document does not authenticate it.
Portal records can change as a project progresses, so treat the date of your check as part of your evidence. Revisit the official record before a substantial payment or signing if time has passed since your first search, and retain the latest version you consulted.
Which details should match the agreement and sales documents?
Check identity first, then the terms that affect what you will receive and when. A registration number on a brochure is not enough if the record points to a different promoter, site or phase.

- Promoter and project: The legal promoter name, project name, site address, survey or plot details, phase and tower should correspond across the portal and sales documents.
- Your unit: Confirm the apartment or tower being offered and compare the stated carpet area with the draft agreement. Ask for an explanation of any area terminology that differs; do not assume that similar-sounding measurements are interchangeable.
- Plans and specifications: Compare the sanctioned plan, layout and disclosed specifications with what is represented in the sales pack. Check whether the promised amenities and other material features appear in the documents or are recorded as written commitments.
- Completion and possession: Distinguish the completion date declared in the project record from a sales representative’s possession estimate. If dates differ, obtain the reason and supporting documentation in writing rather than relying on a verbal explanation.
- Money and remedies: Compare the payment schedule, cancellation terms and other important agreement clauses with the written offer. RERA registration does not make every contract term fair or remove the need to understand what you are signing.
- Land and approvals: Review available land and encumbrance disclosures and approvals, but do not treat a portal listing as a substitute for independent title and legal review where the purchase warrants it.
RERA provides allottees access to sanctioned plans, specifications and other project information. Section 14 of the Act addresses adherence to sanctioned plans and specifications and restricts changes except with the consent required by law. See Section 14; the details and the applicable procedure depend on the law and facts relevant to the project.
What are the warning signs—and what should I do?
Pause the transaction when the portal cannot confirm the exact project or when important facts conflict. A mismatch is a reason to ask questions and preserve evidence; it is not, by itself, proof of fraud or a final legal determination.
- No result for a project that appears to be a covered new development: Recheck the authority, spelling, promoter name and number. Ask the promoter for the registration record or the specific legal basis for not having one, then verify the explanation with the authority before paying.
- The number belongs to another project or promoter: Do not accept a similar name or a group company as a match. Ask for the registration that identifies the exact promoter, location and phase being sold.
- The salesperson says one registration covers every phase: Request documentation supporting that claim and confirm the scope in the authority’s record. Separate phases may have separate registrations.
- Plans, area, amenities or dates differ: List each inconsistency and request a written explanation and corrected documents. Do not rely on an oral assurance to resolve a material conflict.
- The record shows an extension, revocation or order: Read the entry and obtain the underlying order or explanation. Ask what it means for the relevant phase and proposed possession date; seek independent legal advice if the effect is unclear.
- You are asked to pay before receiving basic details: Pause and request the registration number and disclosure documents before making a booking or instalment payment. Keep any request and response in writing.
A missing portal result can have lawful explanations, including a statutory exemption, a recently filed application that is not yet visible, or a search mismatch. The Act’s requirements and exemptions must be applied to the particular project and jurisdiction. Ask the promoter to state the legal basis clearly, then confirm it with the competent authority or an independent property lawyer before proceeding. Do not infer that an exemption applies just because a salesperson asserts it.

Does RERA registration guarantee that the builder will deliver?
No. Registration makes a project subject to a regulatory framework and creates disclosures that a buyer can inspect, but it is not a guarantee of completion, construction quality, title, freedom from every encumbrance or compliance with every promise in a sales conversation.
Use the entry as one part of due diligence: confirm the project and phase, inspect disclosed documents, compare your unit and agreement, and investigate status changes or discrepancies. If the possession date, title position or agreement obligations matter to your decision, get the relevant documents reviewed rather than treating registration as a substitute for that work.

- Registration scope: Check that each number covers the phase and tower under consideration, with the promoter and site correctly identified.
- Declared completion and extensions: Compare the declared completion dates and any extension history or relevant orders. Do not treat a sales estimate as equivalent to the registered date.
- Approvals and land disclosures: Review the available approvals, land information and encumbrance disclosures for each project. A portal comparison is not a title search.
- Unit and commercial terms: Compare carpet area, stated amenities, payment schedule and agreement terms using the actual documents for each unit.
- Updates and public information: Review published status updates and complaint information where the authority makes them available. Absence of a visible item should not be read as proof that no issue exists.
What can I do if information is missing or inconsistent?
Stop before making the next commitment, put your questions in writing and preserve the records you relied on. If the promoter does not resolve a material discrepancy, contact the relevant RERA authority or ask an independent property lawyer to review the registration, title and agreement documents.
RERA provides complaint and remedy mechanisms, but the procedure, forms, timelines and available relief depend on the applicable state or Union-territory rules and the facts. Use the authority’s current official site for its complaint process. Keep copies of the portal record, sales material, correspondence, payment receipts and agreement drafts; they can help establish what was disclosed and when. Do not assume that a portal search alone decides a dispute.

Can a developer sell an apartment while its RERA application is pending?
The Act’s general rule is that a covered project must be registered before the promoter advertises, markets, books or sells it, subject to statutory exemptions. A pending-application claim is not proof that the project is exempt or that a booking is safe; verify the status and legal basis with the relevant authority.
Does RERA registration prove that the land title is clear?
No. The registration record may include land or encumbrance disclosures, but it does not independently establish that title is free of defects. A property-law professional can review the underlying title documents and applicable approvals.
Can a RERA-registered project change its approved plan later?
The Act restricts changes to sanctioned plans and specifications except with the consent required by law. What change is permitted and whose consent is needed depends on the circumstances, so check the current approved documents and obtain advice if a proposed change affects your apartment.
What should I bring to a property lawyer for a RERA review?
Share the portal registration record and uploaded disclosures along with the brochure, draft agreement, allotment or booking papers, payment receipts, and written promises about area, amenities and possession. Ask the lawyer to identify any differences between the project record, land and approval documents, and the contract.
