The delay in possession of their homes has been the biggest concern for the buyers of the real estate properties. For many of the homebuyers, across locations and with almost the builders, the delay has extended to almost six years or more now, with no possession in sight. In the absence of a regulator and with no rules in place, the builder-buyer battle appeared one-sided.
Now, the real estate sector has got its own regulator from May 1, 2017, the date when the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 (RERA) became effective in the entire country. Each state and UT will have its own Regulatory Authority (RA) which will frame regulations and rules according to the Act.
How much of interest rate
Many states fixed the rate of interest payable by the promoter to the allottee or by the allottee to the promoter, as the State Bank of India highest Marginal Cost of Lending Rate plus two percent.
The interest percentage and the compensation amount (to be mentioned in the agreement of sale at the time of booking) in the case of any default could differ state-wise.
