Gujarat RERA (GujRERA) is the Gujarat Real Estate Regulatory Authority, and its official website is gujrera.gujarat.gov.in. On it you can search any registered project, open its registration certificate, approved plans and quarterly progress reports, look up a promoter, and file a complaint online against a builder. This guide covers each step, developer rules and the 2025–2026 changes.

How to search a registered project on GujRERA

Open gujrera.gujarat.gov.in.
Type the project name, promoter name or RERA registration number in the search box on the home page.
Or open the list of registered projects and filter by district, project type (residential, commercial, mixed or plotted) and size. The home page map also lets you filter by district, pincode, area and cost.
Click the project to open its details page and registration certificate.

A Gujarat project number starts with PR/GJ/ followed by the district, taluka and approving authority, for example PR/GJ/AHMEDABAD/… . Match this number with the one printed on the brochure, advertisement and agreement for sale. If the number is missing or opens a different project, do not pay a booking amount.

What to check on the project page

Section	What it tells you
Registration certificate	RERA number, validity and the completion date the promoter declared
Promoter details	Company or person behind the project and their past projects
Land and approvals	Title documents, sanctioned plan, layout plan and building permission
Unit details	Number and type of units, with carpet area of each
Quarterly progress report (QPR)	Construction stage, units booked and money received each quarter
Bank account	RERA collection account into which buyers must pay
Extension or revocation	Whether the completion date was extended or the registration cancelled

Compare the latest QPR with the site. Missing reports, or a passed completion date with no extension, need closer checks. RERA prices are quoted on carpet area; read our guide on carpet area vs built-up area before you compare offers.

How to file a complaint on Gujarat RERA

A buyer can complain against a promoter for delay in possession, change in plans without consent, poor construction or failure to refund money.

On gujrera.gujarat.gov.in, open the complaint option and register as a citizen with your mobile number and email.
Log in and choose the right form. Form A is the general complaint to the Authority (refund, interest for delay, directions to the builder). Form B is the claim for compensation heard by the Adjudicating Officer.
Fill in the project RERA number, your unit, the payments made and the relief you want.
Upload the agreement for sale, allotment letter, payment receipts and letters exchanged with the builder.
Pay the fee of ₹1,000 online and note the complaint number to track hearings.

Hearings and orders are published on the portal. If you disagree with an order, you can appeal to the Gujarat Real Estate Appellate Tribunal within 60 days. A promoter who appeals against a penalty must first deposit at least 30% of it. For a step-by-step view of the process across states, see how to file a RERA complaint.

Registration rules for developers in Gujarat

A project must be registered with GujRERA before it is advertised, marketed, booked or sold, if the land is more than 500 sq m or it has more than 8 apartments or plots (all phases counted).
The promoter declares a completion date; it can be extended under Section 6 of the Act only for valid reasons and with the Authority’s approval.
70% of the money collected from buyers must be kept in a separate account and used only for land and construction of that project.
The promoter cannot take more than 10% of the cost as advance before signing a registered agreement for sale.
Quarterly progress reports must be filed in the first 7 days of each quarter.
Property dealers who sell units in registered projects must also register with GujRERA.

Registration fees are charged per square metre of land and depend on the project type. Reported rates are:

Project type	Fee reported
Group housing	₹5 per sq m up to 1,000 sq m; ₹10 per sq m above
Commercial	₹20 per sq m up to 1,000 sq m; ₹25 per sq m above
Plotted development	₹5 per sq m
Property dealer (individual)	₹10,000
Property dealer (firm or company)	₹50,000

Check the current fee schedule on the portal before you apply, as caps and rules can change.

Key Gujarat RERA updates in 2025–2026

Daily late fee on QPRs (from January 2025): promoters who miss the quarterly window now pay a daily late fee of ₹400–₹1,000 based on project cost, instead of the earlier flat ₹10,000 fee and lock-out.
Three bank accounts: projects must use a RERA collection account (all buyer payments), a retention account (70% for land and construction) and a transaction account (up to 30% for other costs).
Directions to banks (2025): lenders must not give project loans against units already sold, and must keep the collection and retention accounts free of any lien.
Site information boards (November 2025): projects must display a board at the entrance with the RERA number, certificate QR code, approved plans, collection bank account and any project loan.
Maintenance of unsold flats (January 2026): GujRERA ruled that a developer must pay society maintenance on unsold flats from the date of building use (BU) permission.
Penalties for fund misuse (April 2026): GujRERA imposed nearly ₹3.5 crore in penalties in eight suo motu cases for not depositing 70% of buyer money or withdrawing more than allowed.
