How to Verify a Project on TG-RERA Before You Book

TG-RERA has been operational since 2017, and it changed what a buyer can find out on their own. A developer must register a project with the authority before selling even one flat, publish its details, and keep 70% of the money collected from buyers in a dedicated escrow account used only for that construction. All of that is checkable from your phone.

The search itself

Go to rera.telangana.gov.in, open Registrations and choose Projects. You can search by the RERA registration number if the builder has given it to you, or by project name, promoter name or district if they have not. If a project you are being sold does not appear at all, that is the end of the conversation.

What the listing tells you

The entry shows the registration status and number, the approvals on file, the promoter's details and track record, the declared project timeline, and any complaints registered against it. The declared completion date matters more than most buyers realise: it is the date the developer has committed to in a statutory filing, not the optimistic one in the sales pitch.

Complaint history is the part people skip. A promoter with a pattern of complaints across several projects is telling you something about how the next one will go.

Things worth pausing over

A registration number quoted on a brochure that does not resolve on the portal. A declared timeline that has already passed with the project still selling. A promoter whose other registered projects are all significantly delayed. None of these are automatically disqualifying, but each deserves a direct question before you pay a booking amount.

Your protections once registered

RERA caps the advance a developer can take before a written agreement at 10% of the cost. It standardises carpet area so that comparisons across projects mean something. And it gives you a complaints route with a 60-day resolution requirement, which is considerably faster than the alternative.

We publish the RERA number for the projects we represent, and we will pull up the portal entry with you rather than ask you to take our word for it.
