- — SWEETY ADIMUL AM

MUMBAI: Although

Maharashtr­a state was first to set up a Real estate regulator y authority (Rera) in

May 2017. However, even af ter nearly completing its four years' ten ure it was unable to dispose off complaints completely. Still,

33 per cent of the co mplaints received from various stakeholde­rs --homebuyers, builders, among others need to be addressed. As per the data, these complaints are still in the hearing stage.

In fact, the M ahaRERA was set up to provide quick justice to the distressed complainan­ts mainly the homebuyers in a period of 60 days but such is not the case, affirms the advocate. Many are of the view that the regulator y authority is a tooth less body. Until more people having judiciar y background­s are not appointed it won't serve its purpose. Meanwhile, with the appoin tment of Ajoy Mehta, as new MahaRER A chairman what all decisions will be taken for th e betterment of aggrieved complainan­ts so as to bring the process in a time-bound manner besides building trust among builders and homebuyers is to be obser ved, says experts from realty sector.
