EMPIRE TOWERS

Under section 18 of the RERA Act you may stay in the project and claim interest for every month of delay, or exit and claim a full refund with interest. In Maharashtra the rate is SBI's highest MCLR plus 2 percent, currently 10.90% per annum (June 2026). The free delay interest calculator on ReraGenie puts a rupee figure on any delay. Claims are filed as MahaRERA complaints with a Rs 5,000 fee.

The registered promoter entity is LAKHANI REALTY LLP, a partnership as per the filing. Its GSTIN 27AAGFL0260M1Z8 can be cross-checked on the MCA and GST portals. Your agreement for sale must name this exact entity, not a group brand name. The promoter's registered address and contact details are on the project's MahaRERA listing (scan the QR code on any advertisement) and in its filed documents, all downloadable free from this page with a login.

Partly, by law. 70 percent of every buyer payment must go into the project's designated bank account, withdrawable only against architect, engineer and CA certificates as construction progresses; since July 2024 MahaRERA requires a three-account structure for collections. Separately, a promoter cannot take more than 10 percent of the price before signing a registered agreement for sale (section 13). Neither rule guarantees completion; they limit how far your money can travel from the project.

The professionals named in the filing: Architect: IO FOLDS ARCHITECTS & CONSULTANTS; Engineer: MAHIMTURA CONSULTANTS PVT LTD; Engineer: Roshan Mohite; Engineer: ALI ENGINEERS AND CONTRACTORS; Chartered Accountant: KPGA AND ASSOCIATES LLP; Chartered Accountant: NAIR & NAIR ASSOCIATES. Their Form 1 (architect), Form 2 (engineer) and Form 3 (chartered accountant) certificates are what unlock the promoter's withdrawals from the 70 percent account, so their names on record are part of the project's accountability chain.

Four things this page cannot decide for you: that the carpet area in your agreement matches the filed carpet area (the model agreement allows only a 3 percent variation, with a refund right below that); that the agreement follows MahaRERA's model clauses with deviations highlighted; the promoter's record on their other projects, not just this one; why the completion date was revised and what the new timeline depends on. The Rs 499 buyer report works through all of them from the filings.
