What goes wrong — Maharashtra and Thane specifics
MahaRERA's Conciliation Forum is often faster than adjudication
Maharashtra runs a conciliation mechanism jointly with developer and buyer bodies. For delay and refund disputes it frequently produces a settlement in weeks rather than months, and it is worth considering before filing a contested complaint.
Redevelopment projects carry distinct obligations
Mumbai and Thane redevelopment projects involve existing members as well as new buyers, with obligations on rent, alternate accommodation and timelines that differ from a greenfield project.
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.
Ghodbunder Road corridor land classification
Much of the Ghodbunder corridor was agricultural or forest-adjacent land brought into development recently. Classification and conversion status should be confirmed before a gift, since restrictions on agricultural land transfer still apply.
Thane, Kalyan-Dombivli and Ulhasnagar are separate corporations
Properties across the Thane district fall under different municipal bodies with different mutation procedures. The SRO jurisdiction and the mutation authority are not always the same body people assume.
Co-operative society and complex-level compliance
Large gated complexes on Ghodbunder Road and at Hiranandani Estate operate through societies or federations whose transfer procedures must be followed alongside registration.

RERA Complaint FAQs — Thane
What is the gift deed stamp duty in Thane for a family transfer?
Maharashtra's flat ₹200 stamp duty applies to residential or agricultural property gifted to a close relative, with registration at 1% of market value capped at ₹30,000. Thane Municipal Corporation levies may apply on top. Indicative figures compiled July 2026 — confirm before executing.
Which Sub-Registrar Office covers Ghodbunder Road?
Ghodbunder Road properties fall under the Thane Sub-Registrar offices, numbered 1 to 10, with jurisdiction determined by the specific location. Kalyan, Dombivli, Ulhasnagar and Bhiwandi have their own offices. We confirm the correct office before booking.
I own a flat in Kalyan but live in Mumbai — where do I register?
Registration follows the property's location, so a Kalyan flat is registered at a Kalyan office rather than in Mumbai. Both donor and donee must attend, or a registered Power of Attorney must be in place.
How long does mutation take in Thane?
Registration is a single appointment. Mutation with Thane Municipal Corporation or the relevant local body typically takes 30–60 days, and until it completes the donee is not the recorded owner in municipal records.
