Uttar Pradesh real estate regulatory authority (UP-RERA) has directed the competent authorities to refrain from issuing temporary completion certificate (C.C.) or occupancy certificate (O.C.) which is not permissible under the laws relating to issuance of C.C. or O.C. applicable to them.
The authority has also directed all the industrial and housing development authorities to give the names of the relevant towers or blocks of the project with respect to which the part-C.C. or O.C. is being issued, along with the names of all the Towers or Blocks of the project or the phase of the project.
It had been observing that the competent authorities were issuing part-C.C. or O.C. with particulars of the project which did not match with the names of the project or tower or block given by the promoter at the time of registration with RERA or mentioned in the agreement for sale (BBA) executed between the promoter and the home buyer.
Sanjay Bhoosreddy, chairman, UP-RERA said, “It has been observed that the names of the completed towers, blocks or units mentioned in the Part-C.C.s or O.C.s being issued by some of the planning authorities are not matching with their names as given by the promoter to UP-RERA at the time of the registration and the same was creating doubts in the minds of both the home buyers and the regulatory authority, that with some due diligence at the level of the planning authorities, this problem can be very easily addressed.”
Such Part-C.C. or O.C. creates doubts in the mind of the home buyer about the status of completion of his unit or tower at the time of the execution of conveyance deed and handing over of possession of the unit.
In order to avoid the problem of mis-match between the name of the project and its blocks and towers given by the promoter at the time of registration with UP-RERA, it has advised the Planning Authorities to obtain the marketing name of the project, its towers / blocks along with number of units from the promoter along with application for sanction of the map and grant completion or occupancy certificate with the same names to avoid any doubts with regard to completion status of the project or its towers and blocks.
