Housing Ministry Advises Four-Month Extension for Real Estate Projects Due to West Asia Crisis
The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs has advised State Real Estate Regulatory Authorities (RERAs) to grant a four-month extension for registration and completion timelines of eligible real estate projects affected by the ongoing West Asia crisis. This advisory, based on the Force Majeure clause recognizing the situation as "war," aims to address supply chain disruptions and material shortages delaying construction. The extension applies to projects with completion dates on or after February 28, 2026, and authorities are encouraged to issue a common order to streamline the process. Developer bodies like NAREDCO and CREDAI have welcomed the move.
