Ms. Harshita Tyagi, Advocate appeared on behalf of the respondent-promoter and states that the Occupation Certificates for the project were obtained on 18.08.2016 which is prior to the commencement of the Act and on 20.06.2017, which is prior to the commencement of the Haryana Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Rules, 2017 as the same were notified on 28.07.2017. It is contended that the project does not fall within the definition of an “ongoing project” and, therefore, does not require registration under the provisions of the Act. It is further submitted that demolition orders have already been passed for Towers D, E, F, G, and H, and evacuation orders have been issued for Towers A, B, C, and J. The counsel further submits that the respondent-promoter shall apply for registration of the project under the provisions of the Act after obtaining approval of the revised building plans, and in this regard, an affidavit has already been filed before the Authority. The Authority has considered the submissions made by the respondent-promoter and perused the material available on record. The Authority observes that first proviso to Section 3(1) of the Act, 2016 provides as under: “Provided that projects that are ongoing on the date of commencement of this Act and for which the completion certificate has not been issued, the promoter shall make an application to the Authority for registration of the said project within a period of three months from the date of commencement of this Act:” Further, the definition of the term “ongoing project” as provided under Rule 2(1)(o) of the Haryana Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Rules, 2017 clarifies that any project or part thereof for which an Occupation Certificate has been granted on or before the publication of the said Rules shall not be treated as an ongoing project. Rule 2(1)(o) is reproduced as under for ready reference: “Ongoing project” means a project for which a license was issued for the development under the Haryana Development and Regulation of Urban Areas Act, 1975 on or before the 1st May 2017 and where development works were yet to be completed on the said date, but does not include: (i) any project for which after completion of development works, an application under Rule 16 of the Haryana Development and Regulation of Urban Area Rules, 1976 or under sub-code 4.10 of the Haryana Building Code, 2017, as the case may be, is made to the Competent Authority on or before publication of these rules; and(ii) that part of any project for which part completion/completion, occupation certificate or part thereof has been granted on or before publication of these rules.” In the present case, the Occupation Certificates for the project were obtained on 18.08.2016 and 20.06.2017, i.e., prior to the notification of the Haryana Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Rules, 2017 dated 28.07.2017. Accordingly, that part of the project for which the Occupation Certificates were granted prior to the notification of the Rules would not fall within the definition of an “ongoing project” and would, therefore, be exempt from registration under the provisions of Rule 2(1)(o) of the Rules. However, the Authority also takes note of the subsequent developments in the matter, including the demolition orders issued by the Deputy Commissioner, Gurugram vide Memo No. 107 dated 08.04.2024, the evacuation orders issued by the District Magistrate-cum-Chairperson, DDMA, Gurugram vide Order No. 56/FRA dated 19.03.2025, and the vacation order issued by the District Town Planner (Enforcement), Gurugram dated 09.04.2024. The Authority further notes the Affidavit dated 08.08.2025 submitted by the respondent-promoter, wherein it has been affirmed that ‘Chintels India Private Limited shall seek registration under RERA Act of the newly reconstructed project as per law.’ In view of the above facts and circumstances, and considering that the existing project is subject to demolition and reconstruction, the present proceedings are disposed of with a direction to the respondent-promoter to apply for registration of the project under Section 4 of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 after obtaining all requisite approvals, including approval of the revised building plans, in accordance with law. The matter stands disposed of accordingly.
