Bihar RERA Delay Interest — How It Works

Bihar RERA — the Bihar Real Estate Regulatory Authority — regulates real estate projects across Patna, Gaya, Muzaffarpur, Bhagalpur, and the rest of Bihar. Under Bihar RERA's rules, delay interest is calculated as simple interest at SBI MCLR (1-year) + 2% per annum, running from the committed possession date in the registered Agreement for Sale. Complaints can be filed online at rera.bihar.gov.in using Form N (before the Adjudicating Officer for compensation) with a filing fee of ₹1,000. Bihar RERA has been active in Patna and surrounding NCR-like expansions, enforcing the 70% escrow rule and directing builders to pay interest on delayed possession. Use this calculator to estimate your Bihar RERA delay interest. Enter your property value, promised and actual possession dates, and payment milestones to get a precise computation sheet.
