In Maharashtra, the rules say if any building in a project is completed, then it won't need to be registered.Sources said the Bombay HC ruling will compel the states to take corrective measures. Several appeals by urban affairs ministry to states including to BJP-ruled ones had gone unheeded when the Centre had asked them not to dilute the norms. The Centre had fought in favour of bringing all ongoing projects under RERA in the Bombay HC during hearings. "Now our members can challenge the rules notified by states since these violate the central law. The Bombay HC order will be of great help," said Abhay Upadhyaya of Fight for RERA, an umbrella body of flat buyers.
