#RealtyNewsRoundUp: UP Govt To File FIRs Against Builders For Non-Registration Of Flats

The Uttar Pradesh government has decided to file FIRs (first information reports) against developers who have given possession of flats to buyers without registration. This has resulted in revenue loss to the state exchequer, besides causing distress to customers. In the Gautam Buddha Nagar district alone, nearly 16,200 units have been allocated to buyers without proper registration.

Meanwhile, a team of homebuyers and representatives of the Amrapali Group started a joint inspection of stuck housing projects in Noida and Greater Noida. The Supreme Court on March 15 had directed the realty firm and homebuyers in its projects to meet and reach an agreement on the status of its housing projects.
