⚡ Quick Answer

MahaRERA is the Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority. To verify a project, get its MahaRERA registration number, search it on the official MahaRERA website, and check the promoter details, approved plans, declared completion date and progress updates.

  • The registration number should appear on ads, brochures and the project website.
  • L&T The Gateway Sewri is registered under MahaRERA No. P51900054969.
  • Make sure the tower or wing you are buying in is covered by the registration.

Before RERA, home buyers often had to rely on a developer’s word for timelines, plans and approvals. Today, the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 and its Maharashtra regulator, MahaRERA, make much of this information public. Checking a project takes only a few minutes, and it is one of the most useful things you can do before you book.

This guide explains what MahaRERA is, what it covers, and how to verify a project step by step.

What Is MahaRERA?

RERA is the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016, a central law to bring transparency and accountability to real estate. Each state has its own authority to apply it. In Maharashtra, that authority is MahaRERA.

MahaRERA registers eligible real estate projects and real estate agents, publishes project information online, and handles complaints from buyers.

Why MahaRERA Registration Matters

  • TransparencyKey project details are available for anyone to see online.
  • Declared timelineThe developer declares a completion date for the project.
  • Carpet areaHomes must be sold on the basis of carpet area.
  • Progress updatesDevelopers must post regular updates on the project.
  • Approved plansSanctioned plans and approvals are disclosed.
  • A place to complainBuyers can approach MahaRERA if there is a dispute.
Remember: registration means the project has disclosed its details to the regulator. It is not a guarantee of quality or timely delivery, so you still need to read the details carefully.

How to Verify a Project: Step by Step

  1. Get the registration number. Ask the developer or check ads, brochures and the project website. For L&T The Gateway Sewri, it is P51900054969.
  2. Go to the official MahaRERA website. Use only the official government site, not a third-party copy.
  3. Search for the project. Use the registered projects search and enter the registration number or project name.
  4. Open the project details. Review the promoter, project name, address and registration validity.
  5. Check the documents. Look at approved plans, the declared completion date and other uploaded documents.
  6. Read the progress updates. See how far construction has progressed and how regularly updates are posted.
  7. Match it to your unit. Make sure the tower, wing or phase you are buying in is covered by this registration.

Check the Agent Too

Real estate agents and channel partners who sell projects in Maharashtra are also required to register with MahaRERA. If you are buying through an agent, ask for their MahaRERA agent registration number and check it on the website.

Red Flags to Watch For

  • A project that is being advertised without a MahaRERA registration number.
  • A registration number that does not match the project name or address on the website.
  • A brochure possession date very different from the declared completion date.
  • Pressure to pay a large amount before you have seen the agreement.
  • Promises that are not written anywhere in the agreement.

If anything looks wrong, pause and ask questions before you pay.

MahaRERA is also useful after booking. See how to track the construction progress of your under-construction flat using the progress updates on the project page.
