In the first case, Countryside Realtors India (Kavuri Hills) in Madhapur was fined Rs. 38,59,436 for selling 20 villas in its ‘Westend Greens’ project at Mokila without obtaining approvals from the Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (HMDA) or the mandatory RERA registration. The project originally proposed 117 villas.
Five villa owners lodged complaints with TG-RERA, stating that the developer had failed to revalidate the layout with HMDA and did not comply with RERA regulations. TG-RERA Chairman N Satyanarayana, along with two members, directed the developer to obtain the necessary approvals from HMDA within 10 days.
In the second case, Sandstone Infra (India) Pvt Ltd, based in Kukatpally, was fined Rs. 9.01 lakh for failing to register its layout in Medchal mandal. The complainant, who had purchased a 167-square-yard plot for Rs. 38.91 lakh, alleged that the company had not provided a valid HMDA-approved registration certificate.
Apart from the penalty, TG-RERA declared Sandstone Infra a defaulter and uploaded its details, including the name of the respondent, on the official portal.
In the third case, Hyderabad-based NDL Infratech Pvt Ltd and Bengaluru-based Reddy Urban Infra Pvt Ltd were jointly fined Rs. 5 lakh. Afzaluddin Khan, a legal heir of the landowner, alleged that NDL Infratech had illegally acquired disputed Inam land from an impersonator and sold it to Reddy Urban Infra. Despite the land being under litigation, both parties secured RERA registration to construct a block on the disputed land.
These actions by TG RERA aim to ensure transparency and compliance in the real estate sector, protecting the interests of homebuyers and investors. The regulatory body continues to monitor and penalize violations to maintain the integrity of the market.
