HRERA (Gurugram) now requires promoters to publish a public notice during Section 4 registration, in two English + one Hindi newspapers for about two weeks, and the same notice is to be displayed on HRERA’s website [1]. Public-notice requirements for extensions (Section 6) and some proceedings continue [1]. Separately, the 70% separate account rule under Section 4(2)(l)(D)—withdrawals only with Engineer + Architect + CA certificates and an annual CA statement due by 30 September—remains fully enforceable [2].

What changed & why it matters

The 21 May 2025 HRERA office order makes the registration phase more transparent by requiring a public notice while the case is under examination (not after approval) [1]. The notice must run in two prominent English newspapers and one Hindi newspaper for around two weeks, inviting stakeholders to examine the project details and raise objections; HRERA will also display the same notice on its website [1].
At the same time, the Authority continues to audit finances under Section 4(2)(l)(D): 70% of collections go into a separate RERA account, withdrawals must match % completion and be backed by Engineer, Architect and CA certificates, and an annual CA-certified statement must be filed by 30 September every year [2].

Who must compley

• All promoters filing for new registration (Section 4) [1]
• Promoters seeking extension (Section 6) or facing proceedings under Section 7(3)—public-notice/objection requirements continue [1]

Public-notice requirements (plain English)

Where to publish

Two English newspapers and one Hindi newspaper [1].

When to publish

As soon as your case is received and under examination (don’t wait for final registration) [1].

Duration

About two weeks [1].

Also displayed by HRERA

The same notice will be displayed on HRERA’s website [1].

Purpose

Invite stakeholder review/objections on layouts, zoning, sanctioned plans, approvals, etc. [1].
(Similar “two weeks / three newspapers” directions appear across multiple case orders) [3].

Strategy (recommended plan for developers)

1) Front-load disclosures

Sanctioned plans, license, zoning/approvals, title/encumbrance, environmental clearances (if any) → makes your notice specific and defensible [1].

2) Publish early

Place the notices immediately after filing, because the order expects them during the examination window [1].

3) Mirror it digitally

Keep PDF scans of clippings; HRERA will display the same notice. Consider a simple “Public Notices” page on your site [1].

4) Tighten escrow discipline

Re-confirm the 70% separate account, the Engineer + Architect + CA certificate workflow, and the annual CA statement by 30 Sept [2].

5) Objection workflow

Set up an inbox/log, acknowledge within 24–48 hrs, reply with documents; escalate complex matters to legal.

6) Hearing-ready records

Retain clippings, invoices, affidavit of publication, and date-stamped screenshots of web postings.
