RERA and builder delay in India — basics
Builder delay, incomplete possession, and refund themes people ask about; papers to keep; RERA as a pathway many hear of (state RERA varies) — educational only. Not a filing service. No guaranteed registration, refund, or compensation.

What this page covers
Delayed possession, incomplete or defective handover, interest or refund discussions after builder delay, and related flat-buyer questions in India. Remedies and forums depend on your agreement, project status, and state rules. This is a plain-language overview — not formal advice and not a RERA filing service.
RERA in everyday words
Many people hear of state Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) processes for certain project and builder disputes. Exact registration, complaint routes, and timelines vary by state and facts. Mentioning RERA here does not mean every delay must go there, or that any order is guaranteed.

Write in Hindi or English · general guidance, not legal advice
Papers people often organise
Agreement for sale (AFS) or builder-buyer agreement, allotment letter, payment receipts and bank statements, emails/WhatsApp about possession dates, brochure or promised timeline vs actual dates, occupancy/completion claims if any, and prior legal notices. Note project name, unit, and city/state.
Write a calm timeline
List booking date, payments made, promised possession date, what the builder said later, and what you already tried (emails, visits, consumer complaint, etc.). Stick to facts you can show. Avoid forged documents or threats.
Honest limits
Adhiwakta does not file RERA complaints for you, chase builders, or guarantee registration success, possession, refund, interest, or compensation. Outcomes are never guaranteed. Not a lawyer marketplace.
Ask for general guidance
Submit under Property on Ask with your timeline and papers list. Independent advocates may explain options in general terms. Formal engagement begins only if you and an advocate expressly agree after you verify Bar Council enrolment.
