Pune | Sunday | 12th August, 2018

Summary:

“Due to the HC order, MahaRERA will now have to entertain complaints from consumers, thus, bringing down the number of unregistered projects and illegalities involved,” Sagar said. Presently, there are 17,353 projects registered with the authority in the state.Prabhu said Section 3 of the RERA Act mandates that no developer can advertise, market or sell unless he/she registers the project with MahaRERA. To overcome this, we have changed the format of the form, making it easier for the authority to initiate action. “The high court order will ensure that all developers register their projects. In fact, all developers were expected to register with the authority within three months of commencement of the Act, which came into effect in May 2107.Consumers said the HC order gives more teeth to MahaRERA..
