UP real estate watchdog rejects 36 projects for not complying with norms

New Delhi, April 23, 2019: Uttar Pradesh Real Estate Regulatory Authority (UP RERA) has rejected 3 dozen realty projects in the state, including three residential projects of realtor Supertech in Greater Noida.

The UP real estate watchdog has rejected three residential Supertech Gold Country Phase III projects on the Yamuna Expressway, Gautam Buddha Nagar district beacause of reasons including incomplete promoter profile, invalid sanction letter or maps, non furnishing of land lease payment details and more.

In all, 36 residential and commercial projects have been rejected by UP RERA across the UP, including Greater Noida, Lucknow, Agra, Varanasi, Meerut, Saharanpur, Ghaziabad, Kanpur, Bareilly etc. Apart from Supertech, other developers whose projects have been rejected are Ascot Projects, Ratan Housing Development Limited, Hamilton Court, Paramount Propbuild, Meerut Development Authority, Sunworld City and Tulsiani Constructions & Developers. Thirteen realty projects have been rejected by UP RERA in Lucknow and 9 projects have been rejected in Gautam Buddha Nagar.

“The respective developers have been given three months time to apply afresh after rectifying their application and removing their defects. If they fail to comply with the norms, we will not allow these projects to continue with construction work,” UP RERA secretary Abrar Ahmed told Business Standard.

He further said that if the developer failed to comply with the three month notice period it would indicate a a strong possibility that the project was unlikely to take off or get completed.

Builders and developers seeking to register projects with RERA have to apply to the regulator in the respective states along with all the details pertaining to land, maps, approvals etc. The RERA will then scrutinise and vet these projects before giving its approval. Projects can also be rejected over defects of land or lease titles according to the reports published in business-standard.com.

Earlier this month, UP RERA had asked banks to comply with escrow account provisions, after taking cognisance that builders/promoters were not complying with the statutory provisions of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016, and withdrawing funds without proper sanction, thus violating the provisions of the Act.

The regulator had sent letters to the zonal/state heads of all 42 scheduled public and private sector banks and also the Director General of Institutional Finance Directorate for being more vigilant of the operation of escrow accounts maintained by promoters/developers and the compliance of the relevant sections of the Act.

RBI Holds Repo Rate at 5.25%; Realty Industry Sees Stability as Growth Driver The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) decision to maintain the repo rate at 5.25% and retain its ‘neutral’ monetary policy stance in the third bi-monthly Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting of FY27 has elicited a measured response from the real estate industry. While the sector had hoped for a rate cut to further enhance home loan affordability and stimulate housing demand, industry leaders believe the RBI’s decision reflects a balanced approach amid elevated global uncertainties, volatile energy prices, and inflationary concerns. They noted that stable interest rates will continue to support buyer confidence, provide financial predictability for developers, and sustain the momentum witnessed in the residential real estate market. Mr. Kamlesh Thakur, President, NAREDCO Maharashtra “The RBI’s decision to maintain the repo rate at 5.25% while retaining a neutral stance reflects a prudent approach amid global uncertainties and evolving inflation dynamics. While the industry was hopeful of a rate cut, policy stability itself provides confidence to both developers and homebuyers. With borrowing costs remaining unchanged, housing demand is expected to continue its momentum, particularly in the mid-income and premium segments. The upward revision of India’s GDP growth projection to 6.7% underscores the resilience of the domestic economy. Going forward, as inflation moderates in line with the RBI’s expectations, there could be room for a more accommodative monetary policy. A future rate cut would further improve housing affordability, strengthen buyer sentiment, and accelerate investments across the residential and commercial real estate sectors.” Mr. Kaushal Agarwal, Chairman, The Guardians Real Estate Advisory “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged brings continuity and predictability to the market at a time when global geopolitical developments and inflationary pressures continue to create uncertainty. Stable interest rates ensure that home loan EMIs remain broadly unchanged, allowing prospective buyers to make informed purchasing decisions without concerns over rising borrowing costs. The Indian housing market has demonstrated remarkable resilience over the past few years, supported by strong end-user demand, rising incomes, and growing confidence in the economy. With GDP growth projected at 6.7%, we expect housing demand to remain healthy across key micro-markets.” Mr. Shilpin Tater, Managing Director, Superb Realty “The RBI’s decision to maintain the repo rate is a balanced move considering the current global economic environment and domestic inflation outlook. Policy stability is particularly important for the real estate sector as it enables developers to plan projects with greater financial certainty while allowing buyers to benefit from stable lending rates. Demand for quality residential & commercial developments, especially in well-connected urban locations, is expected to remain robust. We remain optimistic that supportive monetary measures in the future could further strengthen investment activity.” Ms. Shraddha Kedia-Agarwal, Director, Transcon Developers “The RBI has adopted a measured and responsible approach by maintaining the repo rate while closely monitoring inflationary trends and global developments. Although a rate cut would have enhanced affordability for homebuyers, the decision to maintain stability provides confidence to both consumers and developers in an uncertain macroeconomic environment. The premium and luxury housing segments continue to witness healthy demand driven by aspirational buyers and strong wealth creation, while the broader residential market remains supported by genuine end-user demand. Stable financing costs, coupled with India’s improving growth outlook, should sustain market momentum.” Mr. Dhruman Shah, Promoter, Ariha Group “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged reflects its focus on balancing growth with inflation management amidst ongoing global uncertainties. For the real estate sector, policy continuity is a positive outcome as it preserves financial stability and ensures that financing conditions remain predictable for both developers and homebuyers. Stable interest rates, combined with sustained infrastructure investments and urbanization, will continue to support residential sales.”
