Unlike other promoters and developers as is commonly understood the petitioner does not require mandatory registration, the plea states

The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has approached the Delhi High Court challenging an order by the city’s Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) mandating the registration of its housing projects.

During a hearing on May 28, Justice Sachin Datta sought responses from both the Delhi RERA and the Central Government on DDA’s petition.

Appearing for the DDA, Senior Advocate Ramesh Singh along with Advocate Vrinda Kapoor Dev cited a 2021 directive from RERA that required the authority to register its projects under Section 3 of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016.

“The statutory scheme of the Delhi Development Act keeps the petitioner distinct from the other developers and promoters of the real estate on account of the fact that the disposal of the developed land and built-up properties are governed by the statutory rules and regulations framed under the DD Act… Unlike other promoters and developers as is commonly understood the petitioner does not require mandatory registration....”, the plea states.
