UP RERA Delay Interest — How It Works

UP RERA — the Uttar Pradesh Real Estate Regulatory Authority — handles one of India's largest volumes of builder-delay complaints, particularly from the NCR corridor (Noida, Greater Noida, Ghaziabad) and Lucknow. A critical distinction: UP RERA appellate tribunals typically apply simple interest at SBI MCLR + 1%. The landmark Supreme Court ruling in Newtech Promoters & Developers vs. State of UP (2021) specifically upheld UP RERA's regulatory authority, confirmed that the Act applies to ongoing projects, and affirmed an allottee's unqualified right under Section 18 to seek a refund with prescribed interest when withdrawing from a delayed project. Complaints can be filed at up-rera.in with a nominal ₹1,000 fee. UP RERA operates benches in Lucknow and Greater Noida. The Authority has been notably active in penalising defaulting builders — including ordering project deregistration and attachment of builder assets for non-compliance. This calculator uses simple interest at MCLR + 1% reflecting standard UP RERA adjudications.
