Registering a project with MahaRERA: the document set that avoids a query

Adv. Ankita ShuklaAdv. Ankita Shukla7 Aug 2026 6 min read

Registration files are rarely rejected outright. They are queried — and each query costs a fortnight. Almost all of it is avoidable by assembling the bundle properly before the first submission.

The core bundle

  • Title report from an advocate, with the full chain of title and any encumbrances disclosed.
  • Sanctioned plans, layout approvals and the commencement certificate as issued.
  • The declaration on the project completion date, phasing and the separate project account.
  • Promoter constitution documents — LLP agreement or memorandum, PAN, and authorised-signatory proof.
  • Proforma of the allotment letter, agreement for sale and conveyance deed.

Where files come back

  • A title report that notes an encumbrance in the body but omits it from the summary.
  • Plans that do not reconcile with the built-up numbers declared elsewhere in the application.
  • A completion date chosen optimistically, with no internal basis for it.
The declared completion date is the one commitment you will be measured against for years. Choose it as a construction decision, not a marketing one.

Assemble once, reconcile across documents, then file. The extra week at the start is the cheapest week in the project.
