RERA Matters
Delayed possession, refunds, construction defects and misleading promises. We act for homebuyers and, where needed, for promoters and agents before the Odisha RERA and its tribunal.
What this covers
The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 requires builders to register projects, to keep to the plans and dates they promise, and to answer for delay and defects. A buyer who has paid for a flat that is late, defective or different from what was advertised has clear remedies.
We review your agreement and payments, tell you which remedies fit, and file and argue the complaint. For builders and agents, we help with registration, compliance and defending complaints.
What we handle
This is only a starting point. The right claim depends on your agreement, what you have paid and what the builder has done, so please talk to us.
How RERA complaints work
In Odisha, RERA matters are heard by the Odisha Real Estate Regulatory Authority and its linked bodies. Different parts of a complaint can go to different forums.
Hears complaints about refund, interest on delay and breaches of the Act by promoters and agents.
Decides compensation, for example for defects, false information or delay.
Hears appeals against the Authority and the Adjudicating Officer. A further appeal lies to the High Court.
Before you buy
Most RERA disputes could have been avoided by a few checks before paying. If you are already in a dispute, the same list shows which documents will matter.
How it works
We read the agreement, payment records and the project’s registration details.
We write to the promoter, setting out the default and what you want.
We file before Odisha RERA with your evidence and the amounts claimed.
We present the case, and explore settlement where it helps you.
We see the order carried out, or appeal if needed.
Bring what you have. Commonly needed:
A favourable order still needs to reach you. Typical steps:
Questions we are often asked
Under Section 18 of the Act, you can withdraw from the project and claim a refund with interest and compensation, or stay in the project and claim interest for every month of delay until possession.
Both are available to a homebuyer in many cases, and the Supreme Court has held that the remedies can exist side by side. The better choice depends on what you want, so we advise on it first.
Registered projects have a RERA number, and their details are on the Odisha RERA website. Larger projects must be registered, and buying in an unregistered one is risky.
Defect claims must be made within five years of possession. For other complaints, delay can weaken your case, so please seek advice early.
Homebuyers can be treated as financial creditors under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, which changes the route to recovery. We advise on the best option for your case.
Any aggrieved person: a buyer, a promoter, a real estate agent or an association of allottees.
Bring your agreement and payment receipts. We will explain where you stand and your options. Your first conversation is private.
