In short: Search the official RERA portal for the property state, then match the exact project phase, promoter, registration validity, completion date, filed plans, progress updates, complaints and orders.
Quick answer
Search the project on the official RERA website of the state or Union Territory where it is located. Match the exact phase, promoter, registration number, land details, sanctioned plans, registration validity, declared completion date, quarterly updates, complaints and orders. A certificate screenshot is not enough.
Step-by-step RERA verification
- Open the regulator’s official government website; avoid advertisements and look-alike portals.
- Search by project name, promoter, district or registration number.
- Match the phase and address. Different phases can have different registrations and timelines.
- Open the certificate and confirm status and validity—not merely that a record exists.
- Compare promoter, land parcels, towers, units and sanctioned plans with your offer.
- Read quarterly progress, architect, engineer and CA updates where available.
- Check extensions, monitoring proceedings, complaints, orders and recovery status.
- Verify the agent separately on the regulator’s agent register.
UP and Haryana examples
UP RERA’s project pages can show project documents, certificates and complaint information. Haryana RERA’s registered-project records can show validity, quarterly progress, monitoring orders and OC/CC/PCC links. Portal labels differ, so save dated PDFs or screenshots of the official record you reviewed.
Red flags
- The advertisement names a project but not its exact RERA phase.
- The number belongs to another location or promoter.
- Status is lapsed, extension is pending, or the completion date has passed without explanation.
- Plans or promised amenities differ from filed documents.
- The seller refuses to share the registered agreement or title documents.
What RERA does not replace
Registration improves disclosure but does not certify your seller’s title, eliminate mortgages, approve every promise or guarantee completion. Independently verify title, encumbrances, sanctioned use, agreement terms and payment routing.
