Before booking a Haryana home, extract these eight figures from its RERA record
A Haryana RERA project page contains more than a registration number. Buyers can use its dates, inventory, declared costs, quarterly targets and payment documents to test a sales claim before paying more than 10%.
1. Registration validity and declared completion date
Start with the project registration number, registration date, validity period and promoter’s declared completion date. Match the project name, phase and land particulars with the brochure. A township brand may contain several separately registered phases with different delivery dates.
2. Number of towers, apartments and plots
Form REP-I records the proposed inventory, including apartment carpet areas, tower counts and plot sizes where applicable. Compare these figures with the unit being offered. If the sales material refers to a tower or plotted phase that cannot be matched to the registration record, ask the promoter to identify the exact filing.
3. Carpet area—not only super area
The project filing provides apartment carpet-area information. Use that number to compare homes because quoted super area can include common components and may produce a lower-looking price per square foot. Record the carpet area, total consideration and all mandatory charges in the same comparison sheet.
4. Total project cost and money already spent
The promoter’s filing can show land cost, construction estimates, finance cost, external and internal development charges and expenditure already incurred. These figures are declarations rather than a promise of market value, but they help a buyer understand the scale of the project and the work still scheduled.
5. Quarterly construction and infrastructure targets
Read the quarterly schedule for apartments, roads, water supply, sewerage, storm-water drainage, electricity, parks, parking and other infrastructure. Compare the filed target with the latest quarterly progress update and with conditions visible during a physical visit.
6. Amount requested before the agreement
Section 13 of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act restricts a promoter from accepting more than 10% of the apartment, plot or building cost as advance or application fee before entering into a written and registered agreement for sale. Calculate the rupee limit from the stated total cost rather than relying on the booking-form label.
7. Payment-plan milestones
Open the uploaded draft allotment letter, agreement for sale and payment plan. Record each percentage and due date, and check whether instalments are linked to construction milestones or calendar dates. Add parking, maintenance deposits, club charges, taxes and other compulsory amounts to calculate the real acquisition cost.
8. Encumbrances, litigation and approvals
Note every declared mortgage, charge, litigation and approval status. Open the licence, sanctioned plan, environmental approval and land documents where uploaded. A clear registration number is the beginning of due diligence; the actual decision depends on whether the offered unit and current project position match those records.
