Real Estate & RERA Disputes
Holding builders and developers accountable before RERA and appellate forums.
Delayed possession, diversion of funds, and unfair builder-buyer agreements are all too common across Delhi NCR's real estate market. Our real estate practice represents homebuyers and investors before the Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA), the Real Estate Appellate Tribunal, and civil courts, pursuing possession, refund with interest, and compensation for project delays.
We also advise developers and allottees on RERA compliance, project registration, and builder-buyer agreement drafting, and act for clients in disputes spanning UP-RERA, Haryana RERA, and Delhi's real estate authority.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a refund if my builder has delayed possession?
Yes. Under Section 18 of the RERA Act, if a promoter fails to hand over possession by the agreed date, an allottee can seek a full refund with interest, or choose to continue and claim interest for every month of delay until possession.
Which RERA authority should I approach for a Delhi NCR project?
The correct forum depends on where the project is located — Delhi's real estate authority, UP-RERA for Noida and Greater Noida, or Haryana RERA for Gurugram and Faridabad projects. Filing before the wrong authority can delay your case, so jurisdiction is confirmed before filing.
What compensation can I claim beyond a refund?
Beyond principal and interest, allottees can claim compensation for financial loss, mental harassment, and litigation costs under Section 12 and Section 14 of the RERA Act, particularly where the project deviates from sanctioned plans or promised specifications.
How long does a RERA complaint typically take to resolve?
RERA proceedings are meant to be summary in nature and considerably faster than ordinary civil suits, with many complaints disposed of within a few months, though contested valuation or possession disputes can take longer depending on the authority's docket.
