Why RERA Registration Matters for Plot & Apartment Buyers
In Vrindavan, the land market has historically been informal — individual sellers, undivided shares, and unapproved layouts were common. RERA changed this entirely. For plots and apartments, RERA provides:
- Separate project account — under the RERA Act, 70% of the amounts collected from buyers must be kept in a separate bank account and used for that project's construction and land cost
- Delivery timeline — the developer registers a possession date and is legally liable if it slips
- Defect liability — the developer must fix structural defects reported within 5 years of handing over possession
- Complaint redressal — buyers can file RERA complaints directly if the developer defaults
For a ₹57L–₹2.83Cr investment in a pilgrimage city, RERA registration is the single most important legal protection you can have.

How to Verify RERA Registration — Step by Step
Frequently Asked Questions
7 answers
Is RERA registration required for plots?
Yes, for plotted developments by a developer. Under the RERA Act a real estate project, including a plotted development, must be registered unless the land to be developed is 500 sq.m or less or it has 8 or fewer units. A plot bought from an individual owner outside a registered project is not covered — check its layout approval and title instead.
Is Omaxe Eternity 2 Vrindavan RERA registered?
Yes — UPRERAPRJ141620/12/2025. The brochure gives the registered project name as "Omaxe Eternity - 2 Phase I", promoted by Omaxe Limited and Omaxe Be Together Project Developers Private Limited, and lists the RERA collection account at IDBI Bank, Daresi Road, Mathura.
Is BeTogether Courtyard RERA registered?
Yes — UPRERAPRJ180126/04/2024, covering the mall retail shops and hotel suites in Rukmani Vihar. The brochure names the promoter as KSONS Buildwell LLP.
How do I verify a RERA registration?
Open up-rera.in, search the project by name or registration number, check that the promoter name and project name match what you are told, note the declared completion date, and download the registration certificate.
Is MVDA approval the same as RERA?
No. MVDA approval means the local development authority has sanctioned the land use and layout plan. RERA registration is about the developer's obligations to buyers — disclosures, use of buyers' money and delivery timelines. For a developer project, check both. Read the MVDA guide.
What happens if a developer misses the RERA possession date?
Under the RERA Act, if the developer fails to give possession as agreed, a buyer can withdraw and claim a refund with interest, or stay in the project and receive interest for each month of delay. Complaints can be filed on the UP RERA portal.
Can NRIs buy RERA-registered plots in Vrindavan?
Under FEMA, NRIs and OCIs can generally buy residential and commercial property (not agricultural land), paying through banking channels — inward remittance or an NRE, NRO or FCNR account. Read the NRI guide.
