The Circular states that registration with the Chhattisgarh Real Estate Regulatory Authority is compulsory for real estate projects where the land area exceeds 500 square meters or the project comprises more than eight units. The Authority states it observed recurring ambiguities regarding classification and registration of persons or entities other than the Original Promoter, and procedural requirements governing project registration. The Circular references earlier Circular No. 3 dated 28.03.2018 and Circular No. 38 dated 24.12.2019, and states it has an overriding effect on both.
Part I defines “Promoter” per Section 2(zk) and states determination of promoter status is governed by the substance of the role performed. It sets out categories: Promoter (P) — the person/entity primarily responsible for development, sale and registration, required to maintain designated RERA bank account(s) and comply with Sections 11, 4(2)(l)(D) and 17; Promoter — P-3(A), applicable where a registered plotted project is subsequently altered to include construction, requiring fresh registration; Promoter Contractor — P-3(B), applicable to construction on allottee-owned land involving more than eight units, for which no Quarterly Progress Reports or Annual Audit Reports are required and no validity period is prescribed, with submission of the Building Completion Certificate required upon receipt; and Promoter — P-3(C), applicable where a registered plotted project is subsequently sold/transferred/conveyed to a party that undertakes construction, requiring mandatory registration.
