How RERA protects delayed and cheated home buyers
The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 — RERA — was made to protect home buyers, and it is one of the most effective remedies available when a builder delays possession, changes the plan, or fails to deliver. It gives buyers a specialised, time-bound forum instead of years of ordinary litigation.
We file and argue buyer complaints before the Real Estate Regulatory Authority for delayed possession, refund with interest, deficient construction and false promises, and pursue the order through to recovery. RERA shifts the balance back towards the buyer, and a well-framed complaint uses that fully.
Who this is for
- Buyers facing long possession delays on a booked flat.
- Buyers wanting a refund with interest from a stalled project.
- Buyers charged extra or given less than what was promised.
- Buyers of registered projects with any builder default.
RERA matters we handle for buyers
We act only on the buyer’s side, across the full range of builder defaults:
- Delayed possession — refund with interest, or possession with compensation.
- Stalled or abandoned projects where you want your money back.
- Deviation from the sanctioned plan or reduced carpet area.
- False promises on amenities, specifications or timelines.
- Wrongful cancellation or forfeiture of your booking.
- Execution of RERA orders to actually recover the money or possession.
RERA — the buyer’s statutory shield
RERA was enacted to correct the imbalance between builders and buyers by creating a regulator, mandatory project registration, and clear obligations on promoters. A builder must deliver by the agreed date and in accordance with the sanctioned plan; failure entitles the buyer to specific statutory remedies rather than uncertain damages.
Crucially, RERA gives the buyer a choice on delay — walk away with a full refund plus prescribed interest, or continue and claim interest for the period of delay. Compensation for deficient construction, plan deviation and false advertising is also available. Because the interest rate and obligations are prescribed, outcomes are more predictable than in ordinary litigation.
We frame each complaint to the relief that best serves you, backed by your agreement and payment record, and pursue it through the Authority and, where needed, the Appellate Tribunal — then on to execution so the order translates into money or possession.

RERA complaints — frequently asked questions
What can I claim in a RERA complaint against my builder?
Depending on your situation, you can claim a refund of your money with interest, or possession of the flat with compensation and interest for the delay. RERA also covers deficient construction, changes to the sanctioned plan, and failure to deliver promised amenities. We advise which relief is strongest for your case.
My possession is delayed — can I get my money back with interest?
Yes. Where a builder fails to hand over possession by the agreed date, RERA allows you to withdraw and claim a full refund together with interest at the prescribed rate, or to stay in the project and claim interest for every month of delay. The choice is yours, and we help you make it.
Is my project covered by RERA?
Most ongoing and new residential and commercial projects above a threshold size must be registered under RERA. If your project is registered — or was required to be registered — you can usually file a complaint. We check the project’s RERA status as the first step.
How long does a RERA complaint take?
RERA is designed to be far faster than ordinary courts, with timelines built into the law. Many matters are decided within months rather than years, though recovery after the order can take additional steps. We give you a realistic timeline for your specific authority and matter.
Is RERA better than going to a consumer court?
For registered real-estate projects, RERA is usually the stronger and faster forum because it is purpose-built for builder-buyer disputes and provides specific remedies like refund with prescribed interest. In some situations a consumer complaint is still appropriate, and we advise on the best forum for your facts.
The builder changed the layout or reduced the area — can I complain?
Yes. Altering the sanctioned plan, reducing the carpet area, or not delivering promised amenities without your consent are breaches under RERA. You can seek compensation, and in serious cases a refund. We document the deviation from what was agreed and claim accordingly.
