How to check a project on the GujRERA portal, and what each part of the page tells you

To check a project on GujRERA you need ten minutes, the project's name and registration number from the advertisement, and one rule: type the portal address, gujrera.gujarat.gov.in, into the browser yourself. Never verify a project through a link, a PDF or a screenshot the sales office sends. This guide is the complete check, eight steps through a project's page, with what you should see at each step and what a red flag looks like.

Before you start#

Write down the registration number as it appears in the advertisement or brochure. The flat you are being sold must sit in the project that number belongs to: phases and towers are often registered separately, so a second tower can carry a different number from the first. What the regulator is and does is in what is GujRERA; this guide is only the portal.

The eight steps#

Step by step#

Find the registration. The portal's search works on names, so search the project's name or the promoter's and open the result. Then compare three things with the brochure: the project name, the promoter's name and the registration number. If you only have a broker's name for the project, search the promoter instead and read the list of its projects.

Read the number. A GujRERA number reads like a vehicle number plate: it tells you where it was issued before it tells you anything else. Take PR/GJ/AHMEDABAD/AHMADABAD CITY/AUDA/MAA00043/010917. After PR/GJ come the district, the taluka and the approving authority (AUDA here, the Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority, or a municipal corporation, or Others). Then a code whose first letter matches the project type on almost every registration: M for mixed, R for residential, C for commercial, P for plotted. Most numbers end in a six-digit date, often the registration date. Two markers matter. EX1 or a later EX number appears after an extension: all 2,698 registrations whose number carried one also had an extension application on record. A marker such as A1R or A1M appears after an alteration: all 1,808 such registrations had an alteration application.

Read the dates. The registration date, the date the project started and the completion date the promoter filed, then every extension application with its dates. GujRERA's label New, Ongoing or Completed sits beside them and is a registration type, not a standing: a project registered as New in 2019 is still labelled New today, whatever has happened since. Of the registrations labelled New, 6,863 had a filed completion date already in the past as updated on 28 October 2026. What each label means, and why it never changes, is in GujRERA's New, Ongoing and Completed. What an extension does in law is in RERA project extension under section 7.

The promoter. The entity your agreement for sale must be with, and its type: partnership firms are the promoter on 12,365 of the 17,309 registrations. The promoter's other GujRERA registrations are where a builder's track record starts.

The units. Each unit type with its carpet area, filed on 17,296 of the 17,309 registrations, and on 16,189 a table of every flat showing whether it is booked. If your flat's carpet area differs from the agreement draft, that is the question to ask before you sign, and carpet area vs built-up vs super built-up explains why carpet is the only area that binds the promoter.

The land. The survey number or city survey number, and where the land is in a town planning scheme, the scheme and the final plot. GujRERA files a scheme number on 9,464 registrations. Match these identifiers against the title report and the 7/12 or property card; a mismatch is a question for your lawyer.

The quarterly returns. One per quarter, marked submitted, exempt or in default, carrying the architect's Form 1 on construction stages, the engineer's Form 2 and the accountant's Form 3. Check the date of the newest one first. GujRERA was reported by DeshGujarat in December 2024 to be replacing its flat late fee for a missed quarterly return with a daily fee of Rs 400 to Rs 1,000 from 1 January 2025, depending on the project's cost, which makes a run of defaults expensive for the promoter as well as informative for you.

Documents and applications. The documents list carries the title report (on 12,838 registrations), the encumbrance certificate (17,228), the approved plans, the commencement certificate (12,086) and the proforma agreement for sale (16,808). The applications list records every annual compliance, extension, alteration and complaint, each with its dates; complaint rows appear on 4,084 registrations. How a complaint works in general is in how to file a RERA complaint.

Hetal and Jignesh run the check#

Names and numbers in this story are illustrative. Hetal searched the promoter's name and found three projects, two of them complete and one, theirs, under construction. The number ended EX1: one extension, approved in 2025, moved the completion date by a year. The latest quarterly return was marked submitted, with Form 1 showing the slabs complete on two of the three towers. Jignesh found their 3BHK's carpet area, 84.6 square metres, and the agreement draft said 84.6 too. The scheme and final plot in the filing matched the title report. One question was left for the sales office: what had caused the extension, and what the agreement said about the new date.

What ReraGenie's free page adds#

ReraGenie's free Gujarat page gathers the parts of this check that the filing answers into one page: the completion date and every extension applied for, how many units are recorded booked, construction stages building by building, the cost lines, the certifying architect and engineer, and every filed document with its upload date, in the same layout as every Maharashtra and Karnataka page. Buyer reports, the project watch and alerts cover MahaRERA projects only for now. Open your shortlist from the Gujarat project list, and read the whole purchase in order in buying a flat in Gujarat.
