This order addresses the application for extending the registration of the real estate project, 'Meena Eco-Vista,' which had an existing validity expiring on June 30, 2024. The Authority reviewed the promoter's submissions, which detailed significant delays in project completion. The primary reasons cited for the delay included the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in nationwide lockdowns, severe disruptions in the supply chain of construction materials, labor shortages, and general financial instability affecting the industry. After careful consideration, the Authority found that a delay in completion was evident and that an extension was necessary to safeguard the interests of the allottees and facilitate the final handover process. Therefore, exercising powers under the RERA Act, the Authority unanimously granted an extension of the project's registration for a period of 15 months, effective from July 1, 2024, to September 30, 2025. The promoter was directed to formalize this extension by applying in Form E and submitting double the required registration fee.

Respondent: BENCHMARK DEVELOPERS vs WBRERA |
This order addresses an application for the extension of the registration validity of a real estate project. The Authority reviewed the request, which sought an extension of 24 months, as the original registration was set to expire on 27.02.2026. The justification for the delay was detailed, citing circumstances beyond the promoter's control. Key grounds included the complete stoppage of construction work due to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns and significant delays in receiving necessary access land from the relevant development authority due to pre-existing title disputes. The promoter successfully secured alternate access land only after initiating and concluding legal proceedings in the High Court. After careful consideration, the Authority found that the delay was not attributable to any default or negligence on the part of the promoter. Therefore, exercising powers under Section 6 of the RERA Act, the Authority granted the extension of the project registration validity. The project's completion and delivery date are hereby extended from 28.02.2026 to 28.02.2028 for a period of 24 months. The Authority noted that this extension is granted as a special case and should not be treated as a precedent. | |

This order addresses the application for an extension of the registration period for a real estate project. The Authority noted that the project's registration validity had expired, necessitating an extension to ensure the completion and handover of units to allottees. The Authority examined the reasons provided for the delay, which included the prolonged impact of the pandemic, scarcity of labor, supply chain disruptions, and financial strains. Recognizing that non-completion would severely jeopardize the interests of the allottees—including potential issues with bank disbursements and the ability to obtain home loans—the Authority deemed an extension necessary.

The new validity period is set from July 1, 2024, to April 16, 2027.

This order addresses an application for the extension of project registration under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016. The Authority reviewed the request for an extension of the project's validity period, citing significant delays in completion. The justification for the delay was found to be beyond the control of the promoter, primarily attributed to *force majeure* conditions. Key reasons cited for the delay included: 1. The severe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to lockdowns, labor shortages, and supply chain disruptions. 2. Legal impediments, including the cessation of construction activities by the Pollution Control Board. 3. Mandatory compliance with directives from the National Green Tribunal (NGT), requiring the procurement of Environmental Clearance and Consent to Establish. After careful consideration, the Authority found that the delay was not due to default or negligence. Therefore, the Authority exercised its powers under the RERA Act to grant an extension of the project registration for a period of 39 months (three years and three months). The extension is granted on the grounds of *force majeure* and exceptional legal constraints. The order mandates the promoter to immediately submit the required online application and directs the Secretary to issue the corresponding system-generated certificate.

This order addresses the application for an extension of the Project Registration for the 'Surabhi Extension' project. The Authority noted that the project's original registration validity had expired, and despite the promoter's efforts, the construction remains incomplete.

After reviewing the submissions, the Authority determined that a delay in completion exists and that an extension is urgently required to safeguard the interests of the allottees and facilitate the process of obtaining the Completion Certificate. Therefore, the Authority exercised its powers under the RERA Act to grant an extension of the Project Registration for a period of **18 months**. The new validity period is set from June 1, 2024, to November 30, 2025. The Authority emphasized that this extension is granted under special circumstances and is not to be treated as a precedent.

This order addresses an application for the extension of a real estate project's registration validity under the West Bengal Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016. The Authority reviewed the request for an extension of 33 months (two years and nine months), citing the project's inability to complete within the existing validity period. The promoter argued that the delay was not due to negligence but resulted from exceptional circumstances, including the severe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (lockdowns, supply chain disruptions, and labor shortages) and mandatory legal impediments. Specifically, the delay was attributed to the cessation of construction activities due to directives from the Pollution Control Board and the requirement for Environmental Clearance and Consent to Establish, mandated by the National Green Tribunal. After careful consideration, the Authority found that the delay was unavoidable and urgently required for the project's completion and handover to allottees. Consequently, the Authority exercised its powers under the RERA Act to grant the extension of the project's registration for a period of 33 months, effective from 30.03.2022 to 31.12.2024. The order directs the applicant to submit the necessary online application and mandates the Authority to issue the corresponding System Generated Certificate for the extended period. | |

This order addresses the application for extending the registration of the real estate project, 'Swayam City Phase III,' under the provisions of the RERA Act, 2016. The Authority, after considering the submissions, found that the delay in project completion was not attributable to any default or negligence on the part of the promoter. The primary reasons cited for the delay were deemed to be *force majeure* conditions, specifically: 1. The severe disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns. 2. Significant legal and regulatory impediments, including a status quo order issued by the National Green Tribunal (NGT) and the mandatory requirement for Environment Clearance (EC) and Consent to Establish (CTE). Given that the extension is crucial for the completion certificate and protecting the interests of allottees, the Authority exercised its power under Section 6 of the RERA Act. Consequently, the registration of the project has been granted an extension of **33 months (2 years and 9 months)**, effective from 30.03.2022 to 31.12.2024.

This order addresses an application for the extension of project registration under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016. The Authority reviewed the request, noting that the project’s previous extension period expired on August 30, 2024. The core justification for the extension lies in the inability to secure the final Completion Certificate by the stipulated deadline. The Authority acknowledged that delays were attributed to post-pandemic economic slowdown, labor shortages, and the finalization of common facilities (such as landscaping and recreational areas). After examining the submitted affidavits and supporting documents, the Authority concluded that an extension is necessary to safeguard the interests of the allottees and facilitate the final handover process. Therefore, exercising powers under Section 6 of the RERA Act, the Authority unanimously granted an extension of the project registration. The project is granted a new validity period from August 31, 2024, to August 30, 2025. The order emphasizes that this extension is granted as a special case and should not set a precedent for future applications. | |

This order, issued by the West Bengal Real Estate Regulatory Authority (WBRERA), grants approval for modifications and alterations to the sanctioned plan of the project, HANUMAN COMPLEX, under Section 14(2)(ii) of the RERA Act, 2016. The Authority reviewed the application for changes based on a revised sanctioned plan. Crucially, the Authority noted that since the project currently has no allottees, the statutory requirement for obtaining prior written consent from two-thirds of existing allottees is not applicable. Consequently, the Authority allowed the proposed changes, which involve significant revisions to the project's land and built-up areas, including adjustments to both residential and commercial components. However, the approval is conditional. The Applicant is mandated to remit a registration fee of Rs. 30,230/- for the commercial land area. Upon receipt and verification of the payment proof, the Authority shall issue the Modified Certificate and update the necessary details on the WBRERA website. |
