Haryana RERA Consent Verification Strengthens Allottees’ Rights

The Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) in Gurugram has announced a new initiative to verify the authenticity of the two-thirds consent from allottees that real estate promoters must obtain to make changes to their project layouts or building plans.

This decision was made during a recent meeting of RERA officials and aims to uphold the rights of allottees as stipulated under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act of 2016.

Key Focus on Consent Verification

1. Regulatory Requirements

According to Section 14 of the Haryana RERA Act, promoters are prohibited from altering the sanctioned plans, layouts, or building specifications without the prior consent of at least two-thirds of the allottees, excluding the promoter.
This rule ensures that the interests of the allottees are protected and that a significant majority agrees upon any changes.

2. RERA Consent Verification Process:

Traditionally, before allowing any alterations, the authority would issue a public notice to invite objections. If no objections were received, the changes could proceed.
With the new measure, RERA will actively engage in RERA consent verification to ensure its validity, safeguarding against potential disputes and ensuring compliance with the Act.

3. Legal Support

This initiative reflects RERA’s commitment to maintaining transparency and accountability in the real estate sector, ensuring that the rights of property allottees are respected and upheld.

Advocate Harshit Batra, a specialist in property-related cases, supports this move by RERA. He highlights that this RERA consent verification process will help prevent future litigation concerning the approval of revised plans. Also facilitate smoother implementation of development projects.
