Real  Estate  Regulatory  Authorities  of  the concerned  State/UT  are  required  to  operationaliseand  maintain  a web portal, containing details of real estate projects and real estate agents who have registered under RERA.

(d): As  per  information  received  by  the  Ministry,  34  States/UTs have notified Rules under RERA. So far, 30 States/UTs have set up Real  Estate  Regulatory  Authority  and  26  States/UTs  have  set  up Real  Estate  Appellate  Tribunal.  27  States/UTs  have  set  up  webportals. 61,223 Real Estate Projects and 48,438 Real Estate Agents have  been  registered  under  the  provisions  of  RERA  across  the country. 64,200 complaints have been successfully disposed of by the Real Estate Regulatory Authorities across country. (e): Ministry  of  Housing  and  Urban  Affairs  reviews,  on  regular basis, the progress of implementation of RERA, including notification of RERA Rules, establishment of Real Estate Regulatory Authorities and Real Estate Appellate Tribunal etc. in the States/UTs.
