RERA Project Search – How to Find and Verify Registered Real Estate Projects

The RERA project search feature on each state's RERA portal lets you verify whether a real estate project is registered and compliant before you invest. Search by project name, developer name, RERA registration number, or location on the official state RERA portal. A valid, active RERA registration confirms the project has disclosed all approvals, timelines, and financial details, and that you have legal recourse under the RERA tribunal if commitments are not met.

What is RERA and why does it matter?

RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Authority) was established under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016. It aims to protect homebuyers and bring transparency to the real estate sector by regulating transactions between buyers and developers. RERA mandates that all residential and commercial projects where the plot area exceeds 500 sq. mt or involves more than 8 apartments must be registered with the respective state RERA authority before advertising, marketing, or selling.


Registration ensures that developers publicly disclose all project details — plans, timelines, approvals, and financial statements. Any legal disputes can be resolved through the RERA tribunal, and developers who fail to deliver on time face mandatory compensation to buyers.

How to conduct a RERA project search

Step 1: Identify your state's RERA portal

RERA operates at the state level. Visit the specific RERA portal for the state where the project is located. Each state has its own portal — for example, MahaRERA for Maharashtra, RERA UP for Uttar Pradesh, RERA Karnataka for Karnataka.
 

Step 2: Navigate to the 'Registered Projects' section

Locate the section dedicated to searching for registered projects — usually labelled 'Registered Projects', 'Project Search', or 'Project Enquiry'.
 

Step 3: Enter project details

Search using any of the following:

  • Project name
  • Developer or promoter name
  • Project type (residential or commercial)
  • RERA registration number
  • Location (city or area)
     

Step 4: Review the project information

The search results display:

  • RERA registration status and validity
  • Completion timelines
  • Approved plans and specifications
  • Status of various approvals
  • Any past complaints or orders against the developer

Verify that the registration is active — not expired or suspended.


Step 5: Confirm the registration number before booking

Before paying any booking amount, confirm the RERA registration number appears on all advertisement materials and brochures. An unregistered project should not receive any booking.

Frequently Asked Questions

About RERA compliance

RERA and home loans

What is the minimum plot size that requires RERA registration?

Under the RERA Act, any residential project with a plot area above 500 sq. mt or involving more than 8 apartments must be registered. Projects below these thresholds are generally exempt. However, a RERA-registered project offers significantly more buyer protection — always prefer registered projects when buying a home.

What should you check on the RERA portal before booking a flat?

Verify the RERA registration number and its validity date, check the approved layout plan against what is being marketed, review the promised completion date and whether it has been revised, check for any past consumer complaints or orders against the developer, and confirm the project's escrow account compliance (70% of collected funds must be in a dedicated account).

Can you file a complaint under RERA if the developer delays possession?

Yes. If the developer fails to deliver possession by the committed date, you can file a complaint on the state RERA portal. The RERA tribunal will hear the matter and order compensation, typically interest on the amount paid for the delay period. In serious cases, buyers can also seek a refund with interest.

Does RERA registration affect home loan approval?

Yes. Most banks and housing finance companies prefer or require the project to be RERA-registered before disbursing a home loan against it. RERA registration provides legal clarity on ownership, construction progress, and delivery timelines, reducing lender risk. Bajaj Finance offers home loans from 7.25% p.a.* with amounts up to Rs. 15 Crore* and tenures up to 32 years. Check your eligibility today.
