What goes wrong — Kerala and Thrissur specifics
Choose one forum — RERA, consumer court or NCLT
The same grievance can go to RERA, a consumer commission, or the NCLT if the builder is insolvent. Filing in parallel weakens your position. The right forum depends on the relief you want.
Insolvency stops RERA proceedings
Once a developer enters insolvency, the Section 14 IBC moratorium halts RERA proceedings and homebuyers must claim as financial creditors in the resolution process instead.
An unregistered project narrows your options
If the project was never registered, the Authority can penalise the promoter, but your refund or possession remedy may be better pursued elsewhere.
Pokkuvaravu is a separate step at the village office
Registration does not update revenue records. Pokkuvaravu — mutation — is applied for at the village office and updates the Thandaper account. Until it completes, land tax continues to be assessed on the previous owner.
Paddy land Data Bank listing across the district
Thrissur has extensive paddy cultivation, and a high proportion of land in the district appears in the Data Bank under the 2008 Act, prohibiting conversion regardless of title.
Devaswom and temple land
Thrissur's temple institutions hold substantial land through Devaswom boards. Such land generally cannot be alienated, and occupation creates no transferable title.
Kole wetlands
The Kole wetland system around Thrissur is a notified ecologically sensitive area with construction prohibitions that survive transfer.
