What goes wrong — Uttar Pradesh and Prayagraj specifics

UP-RERA has the heaviest stalled-project caseload in India

Noida, Greater Noida and Ghaziabad account for an extraordinary concentration of delayed and abandoned projects. Many involve developers already in insolvency, which moves buyer claims out of RERA and into the resolution process.

Authority dues and the tripartite structure

Where a developer owes land dues to the NOIDA or Greater Noida Authority, registries for buyers are frequently withheld even after a favourable RERA order. The Authority's dues position needs establishing alongside the complaint.

Choose one forum — RERA, consumer court or NCLT — not all three

The same grievance can often go to RERA, a consumer commission, or the NCLT if the builder is insolvent. Filing in parallel weakens your position and can lead to dismissal. The right forum depends on what you actually want: refund, possession, compensation or interest.

An unregistered project narrows your options

RERA registration is mandatory for most projects above the threshold. If the project was never registered, the Authority can penalise the promoter, but your remedy for delay or refund may be better pursued elsewhere.

Insolvency changes everything

Once a developer enters insolvency, a moratorium under Section 14 of the IBC halts RERA proceedings, and homebuyers must file claims as financial creditors in the resolution process instead. Continuing before RERA at that point achieves nothing.

Delay interest accrues but must be claimed correctly

Interest for delayed possession runs at the rate prescribed under the state rules, typically linked to SBI's highest marginal cost of lending rate plus a margin. Claiming an incorrect rate or period is a common reason awards fall short of expectation.

RERA Complaint FAQs — Prayagraj

Can I buy land on the Ganga or Yamuna floodplain in Prayagraj?

Generally not for construction. Extensive floodplain land is subject to flood-zone and temporary-use classifications, including areas used for the Kumbh Mela, which prohibit permanent building. Title and buildability are entirely different questions here.

What is Nazul land and does it affect Civil Lines property?

Nazul is state-owned land held on long lease, and parts of central Prayagraj including the Civil Lines belt sit on it. Transfer requires the Nazul authority's consent, and the lease terms govern permitted use — a sale deed alone does not displace them.

Which Sub-Registrar Office covers Civil Lines or Naini?

Central Prayagraj is served by the Sadar and numbered city offices, with Soraon, Phulpur, Handia and Karchhana covering the district. Naini falls under the city offices depending on exact location.

How long does dakhil kharij take in Prayagraj?

Typically 30–60 days after registration. Until it completes, municipal and revenue records continue to show the previous owner, which obstructs any later sale or loan.
