Around 314 projects registered with the Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority (MahaRERA) are undergoing proceedings at the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code. The Maharashtra real estate regulator has published the list on its website to prevent homebuyers from getting deceived.
The insolvency proceedings have been initiated by various banks, financial institutions and other entities extending a line of credit to the real estate sector, it said.
Of the 314 projects, 56 are ongoing with an average registration of apartments at over 34%. Likewise, among the balance of 194 projects that are lapsed, the average registration done is over 61%. The balance of 64 projects have been completed, with a registration rate of 84% for the apartments, it said.

“MahaRERA has initiated several measures to keep a check on all real estate projects. Not only the information shared by the developers is verified, but the regulator also keeps itself abreast of project status through other sources. The list of projects facing proceedings in NCLT has been compiled based on information obtained from various sources and verified through the relevant authorities as well,” it said.
Of the 88 projects in Suburban Mumbai, 51 are 70% invested. Similarly, in Pune, of the 50 projects, 75% of 45 projects are already booked. In Thane, 52 out of 106 projects have investments of 50%. In Palghar, 16 out of 18 projects are 74% booked, it said.
In Solapur, all the 5 projects have 87% investment. In Nagpur, both the projects have 60% investment and the sole lapsed project in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar is 55% invested. Additionally, out of the 9 lapsed projects in Mumbai City, 2 already have an investment of 68%. In Nashik, there is a 34% investment in all the 3 lapsed projects. Whereas, in Raigad, of the 15 lapsed projects, 13 are 32% invested.
Of the 56 ongoing projects, 21 are from Mumbai suburbs (with 38% investment), 20 in Thane (28% investment), 6 in Mumbai City (31% investment), 5 in Pune (41% investment), 2 in Palghar (65% investment), 2 in Raigad (9% investment) and 1 in Ratnagiri (nil investment).
Among the 64 completed projects, 35 are in Thane and 18 in the Mumbai suburbs. Additionally, there are 9 projects in the Haveli area and 2 in Pune. The total percentage of registration done is 91% for housing projects in Thane, 87% of the apartments in Mumbai suburbs are registered, and 96% in the case of projects in Pune. On an average, 84% of the apartments in all the completed projects have been registered.
“It is unclear if these 314 projects are still accepting new customers. Hence, to ensure transparency and prevent homebuyers from getting deceived, MahaRERA has compiled the list and published it on its portal, as it is of the view that it will help in alerting and guiding people. MahaRERA has appealed to the homebuyers to go through the list prior to purchasing a home,” it said.
