NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Thursday said it is high time all states should rethink the constitution of the real estate regulatory authority (RERA) as the institution is doing nothing, except facilitating defaulting builders. The observations came from the bench, which permitted the Himachal Pradesh government to shift the office of RERA to the place of its choice. The high court had earlier stayed a June 2025 notification concerning the shifting of RERA office till further order. Later, in its order passed on December 30, 2025, the high court directed the continuance of the interim order. The top court stayed the high court’s December 30 direction.
