The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 — usually shortened to RERA — created a regulator in every state to bring transparency to property sales. In Rajasthan, that regulator is RERA Rajasthan (RAJ-RERA). Most residential projects above a minimum size must be registered before they are marketed, and the registration number must appear on the developer's advertisements and website.
Registration matters because it ties the developer to the promises made at the time of sale. The developer must upload project details, approvals, the layout, and completion timelines to the RERA portal, deposit a fixed share of buyer payments into a dedicated project account, and update progress periodically. If commitments are not met, buyers have a defined route to complain and seek remedies through the authority rather than through a lengthy civil process.
When you evaluate a project, look up its registration on the RAJ-RERA website using the project name or registration number, and compare what is listed there with what you are being told. Where a project is still awaiting its registration number, the responsible approach is to wait for it before making a booking — and to ask the developer for a written timeline.
