How to Check a Project on MahaRERA Before You Pay a Booking Amount

Two things have made the MahaRERA project page more important this month. Maharashtra now wants the MahaRERA certificate or OC before a flat sale is registered, and new figures show how hard it can be to recover money once a project goes wrong. Ten minutes on the project page before booking is the cheapest protection you'll ever buy.

How do I check if a project is registered on MahaRERA?

Search the project on the MahaRERA website by its registration number, not only by name. The marketing name and the registered name can differ. A developer guide published in July 2026 by Chandak Group lists what to look at once you find it.

What should I check on a MahaRERA project page?

1. Registration number: it should match the brochure, the website, the ads and your booking form.
2. Promoter's legal name: it may be different from the brand name you see in ads. Your agreement should be with the registered promoter.
3. Proposed completion date: and any extensions. If the date has moved, ask why.
4. Progress updates: quarterly and annual updates, and whether the project appears on non-compliance or abeyance lists.
5. Approvals: commencement certificate and sanctioned plans for under-construction projects; occupancy certificate for completed ones.
6. Complaints and orders: look for complaints, orders, and lapsed or revoked registrations.
7. Building details: wings, floors, unit counts and parking, compared with what the sales team tells you.
