isnt a dedicated portal yet but the UT has been
notified about the regulation. Puducherry The
notification of the regulation has reached them
but even they do not have a portal as of
yet. The forthcoming Problems Leaving aside the
primary problems like proper infrastructure
functioning of RERA is missing in many states
there is also numerous hurdle before the
regulation has been awarded complete success.
This sector encountered consolidation and
development withholding after RERA. On the other
hand, the government is encouraging various
propositions the promotion of affordable housing
for the consumers. Notwithstanding is a deduction
in terms of the fund, as the cost of receiving
permission is still very high and defiantly needs
rationalization for proper implementation of the
plan. . After the introduction of the law, the
system has rather become complicated for the
newcomers to enter the market. Building up
business for young entrepreneurs has become
difficult. The board is set for organized players
who have a taste of the market. Nevertheless, the
young crowd just could not come and start off and
pave a way up
5
, for anything they should build something in
terms of finance and most importantly compliance
of the team. However, the law has become
challenging for newcomers. Positive Aspects There
is no denial about the developments that have
taken its pace with the positives of this law.
Rather it is very early to pass a judgment
against the law. RERA implements plenty of facade
and order in the past two years. On arrival of
RERA issues like ground reality issues, problems
and challenges beating the sector are addressed
in a polished manner. On the set of the RERA law
marked major changes in the customer-vendor
agreements, for the same a lot of companies in
order to improve their skill sets using training
after RERA, however some outsourced the project
to a third party for better clarity. The customer
experience has gained priority after enforcement
of the law. Many companies started to train their
stuff, while few hired professional agencies to
manage customer relations, on the other hand very
few rehabilitated customer interface.
