TNRERA has mandated that all registered real estate projects in Tamil Nadu must display dedicated, easily visible boards with key project details. These 2x4 ft boards must face a public road and show the promoter's name, project name, RERA registration number, estimated completion date, and the TNRERA website. Developers must submit photo proof of the installed board, certified by their engineer or architect, as part of Form-C documentation. Non-compliance could delay project approvals. This move strengthens transparency and aligns with earlier display rules under Tamil Nadu's building regulations, ensuring buyers and the public can easily verify project status on-site.
The Real Estate Regulatory Authority of Tamil Nadu (TNRERA) has made it mandatory for developers to install clearly visible information boards at every real estate project registered under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act (RERA). This rule applies to both building developments and layout projects, and must be implemented immediately following RERA registration.
According to the latest directive, these display boards must measure at least 2 feet by 4 feet and be placed facing a public road to ensure maximum visibility. They should not be combined with any other signage or hoarding. Each board must contain crucial project information, including the name of the promoter, the name of the project, the RERA registration number, the estimated project completion date, and the official TNRERA website. The intent is to ensure that prospective buyers and the general public can easily verify a project's registration status and timeline.
Further strengthening enforcement, the authority has mandated that developers submit photographic evidence of the installed board. This evidence must be certified by the project's engineer or architect. Non-compliance with this step could result in a delay in the issuance of the project's completion certificate. This requirement has now been formally included as part of the documentation for Form-C, which is needed at the time of project registration.
Officials highlighted that this directive builds on earlier obligations under the Tamil Nadu Combined Development and Building Rules, 2019, which already required developers to display planning permission details at construction sites. However, those boards did not necessarily include specific RERA-related information. The new rule integrates and upgrades this disclosure requirement by bringing it in line with RERA's transparency mandates.
The RERA Act has always required registration details to be publicly displayed at project sites. TNRERA's latest notification ensures uniform compliance across the board and closes any gaps in earlier enforcement practices. Regulatory officials said this effort will standardise the manner in which registration details are made visible and accessible on site, thereby reducing the possibility of information gaps or wilful omission by developers.
