U.P. Real Estate Regulatory Authority, Regional Office, Gautam Buddha Nagar Hearing Bench-04A E-Court 45-Complaint WN-NCRI44/02/05827/2023 Swarndeep Singh v. Imperia Structures Limited 29.03.2023 The complainant's case was presented through video conferencing. On call, learned advocate Ms. Malini appeared on behalf of the complainant. Learned advocate Shri Harsh Pratap appeared on behalf of the respondent. The complainant states that the respondent's project in question is unregistered in RERA. In this regard, in the judgment delivered by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Civil Appeal No.-6745-6749/202 "M/s Newtech Promoters and Developers Pvt. Ltd. v. State of U.P. and others", it has been clearly stated that:—

"33. Under Chapter II of the Act 206, registration of real estate projects became mandatory and to make the statute applicable and to take its place under sub-section (1) of Section 3, it was made statutory that without registering the real estate project with a real estate regulatory authority established under the Act, no promoter shall advertise, market, book, sell or offer for sale, or invite persons to purchase in any manner a plot, apartment or building, as the case may be in any real estate project but with the aid of proviso to Section 3(1), it was mandated that such of the projects which are ongoing on the date of commencement of the Act and more specifically the projects to which the completion certificate has not been issued, such promoters shall be under obligation to make an application to the authority for registration of the said project within a period of three months from the date of commencement of the Act. With certain exemptions being granted to such of the projects covered by subsection (2) of Section 3 of the Act, as a consequence, all such home buyers agreements which has been executed by the parties inter se has to abide the legislative mandate in completion of their ongoing running projects."

From the above, it is clear that provisions of the RERA Act will apply only when the project has been registered with RERA, and registration of the project is mandatory. In the present case, the respondent's project in question is not registered with RERA. Under the stated circumstances, because the project in question is not registered with RERA, the complainant's complaint is not maintainable under the RERA Act and the complainant is not entitled to receive any prayed relief. In view of all facts and circumstances, there is no justification at present to pass any order against the respondent under the provisions of the RERA Act. In this matter, Secretary, RERA, after giving notice to both parties and on the basis of other necessary records, shall determine whether this project was required to be registered under RERA or not. After taking further action accordingly, this file be presented again with outcome within the next 3 months. The complaint of the complainant is kept in Abeyance at present. Order be uploaded on the portal. Accordingly, the file be transmitted to Secretary RERA, Uttar Pradesh. 21.03 4 > (Rajive Kumar) (Chairman) U.P. Real Estate Regulatory Authority
