A registration number alone does not confirm that the unit being sold belongs to that registered phase. **Q: Should I pay a token before seeing the draft Agreement for Sale?** A: Request the draft agreement, approved cost sheet and booking form before paying. Many buyers review these documents first, then decide on a token. If sales refuses to share drafts, treat that as a due-diligence gap rather than a reason to rush payment. **Q: What is the difference between GujRERA verification and booking due diligence?** A: GujRERA verification checks how the project is registered and what the promoter has disclosed on the official portal. Booking due diligence applies those facts to your specific unit, payment milestones, receipts, cancellation terms and the contractual documents you are asked to sign. **Q: Which possession date should I trust for an under-construction flat?** A: Compare the live GujRERA timeline, the draft Agreement for Sale possession clause and any sales brochure date. They serve different purposes. If they differ, ask for a written reconciliation and obtain independent legal advice before booking. **Q: Are construction-linked payments protected under RERA?** A: RERA frameworks require promoters to follow prescribed collection and account rules for registered projects. Confirm the registered project status, the payment schedule in your agreement, the receipt entity and whether collections align with disclosed milestones. Do not assume verbal assurances replace the written schedule. **Q: Can the project brand differ from the RERA promoter on the booking form?** A: Yes. A customer-facing developer brand can differ from the legal entity registered as promoter. Match the promoter name on GujRERA with the booking form, payment instructions, receipt and Agreement for Sale before you pay. **Q: What should I check at the site before booking?** A: Compare physical progress with the latest quarterly update, inspect approach roads and drainage, review the sample flat against the unit plan, and photograph anything you want sales to confirm in writing. Pair a site visit with our monsoon and site-visit checklists for Gandhinagar buyers. **Q: Is the booking token refundable?** A: Refund terms depend on the booking form and promoter policy. Ask for the written cancellation and refund clause before payment, confirm the receipt description, and do not treat a verbal promise as binding unless it appears in the approved documents. **Q: How do I get Ariva's approved booking documents?** A: Ariva's current approved cost sheet, booking form and project documents are shared by the sales team on request. Use the contact section on the Ariva microsite rather than relying on unofficial estimates or third-party listings. **Q: When should I repeat RERA and booking checks?** A: Check before shortlisting, again immediately before paying a token or signing, and again if the transaction spans several weeks or the promoter issues revised documents. Save dated copies because live GujRERA records and inventory can change. ## Official sources - https://gujrera.gujarat.gov.in/ - https://mohua.gov.in/upload/uploadfiles/files/FAQs-on-RERA%281%29.pdf - https://www.indiacode.nic.in/handle/123456789/16829 - https://www.shreebuildcon.com/ariva/ ## Disclaimer General educational information only.
