RERA Chhattisgarh Complaint & Project Status: How to Check Online (Chhattisgarh, 2026)

How-To · RERA Chhattisgarh

Updated for 2026 · Claw Editorial

You filed a complaint against a builder in Chhattisgarh, or you want to be sure a project is registered before you pay, and you cannot tell where to look. The answer sits on the RERA Chhattisgarh portal at rera.cgstate.gov.in, but complaint status and registration status are two different checks. This guide shows how to run both, explains the order and appeal route to the Chhattisgarh Real Estate Appellate Tribunal, and tells you where to look when the portal is not enough. Last verified October 2026.

01The short answer

To check a RERA Chhattisgarh complaint status, open the official portal at rera.cgstate.gov.in, go to the complaints section and search by complaint number or party name. To check a project or agent, search the registered projects or agents list. Complaint status shows your case; registration status shows whether a project is legal to sell. To track RERA and Chhattisgarh REAT matters by party name with alerts, create a free Claw account.

A complaint status tells you what is happening to your case. A registration status tells you whether the project was allowed to be sold in the first place. Do not mix them up.

02Why status checks go wrong

Most homebuyers and small developers in Chhattisgarh lose time on status checks for three simple reasons.

Two different searches look the same

The portal has lists of registered projects, registered agents and complaints. They sit close to each other, and many people search the wrong one. A project can show as registered while your complaint against it is still pending, and both facts are true at once.

Names are spelled many ways

A promoter may be a company, a partnership or an individual, and the same name can be written in different ways in the complaint, the registration and the order. A search with the wrong spelling returns nothing, and people wrongly think no record exists.

The portal shows a moment, not a watch

The portal gives you the status on the day you look. It does not warn you when a hearing date changes or a new order is uploaded. If you have several matters, you must check each one again and again.

03Complaint vs registration vs order: what is the difference

There are three things people call “RERA status”, and each answers a different question.

• Complaint status: what is happening to a dispute filed with the Real Estate Regulatory Authority, Chhattisgarh. It shows the complaint number, the parties, the hearing dates and where the case stands. Complaints by allottees against promoters are filed under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016.
• Registration status: whether a project, a promoter or a real estate agent is registered with the Authority. A registered project has a registration number and a declared completion date. Check this before you pay a booking amount.
• Order search: the written orders passed in a complaint. The status line may say “disposed”, but only the order tells you what was decided, what must be refunded or done, and by when.

A simple way to remember it: registration is about the project, complaint is about the dispute, and order is about the result. Run the check that matches your question.

04How to check RERA Chhattisgarh complaint status: step by step

Follow these steps on the official portal. Keep your complaint number or acknowledgement handy.

1. Open the portal. Go to rera.cgstate.gov.in. This is the official site of RERA Chhattisgarh. Do not use a lookalike or agent site that asks for money.
2. Find the complaints section. Look for the menu for complaints or case status. The exact label can change when the portal is updated.
3. Search by number. Enter the complaint number exactly as written in your acknowledgement. This is the fastest and most accurate route.
4. Or search by party name. If you lost the number, try the complainant name, then the promoter or project name. Try short forms and alternate spellings.
5. Read the record. Note the status, the next hearing date, and any order or notice uploaded. Save a copy or screenshot with the date.
6. Act on what you see. If a hearing is near, confirm your reply or documents are filed. If an order is passed, read it in full.

05How to check a project or agent registration: step by step

Do this before you book a flat or plot, and again if a project seems delayed.

1. Open the registered projects list on the portal.
2. Search by project name, promoter name or registration number. The registration number should be printed on the builder’s ads and agreement. If it is missing, ask why.
3. Open the project page. Check the promoter, location, registration date, validity and the declared completion date. Compare these with your agreement.
4. Look for updates. Registered promoters must file progress updates. A project with no updates for a long time is a warning sign.
5. For an agent, open the registered agents list and search by name or registration number. An agent selling projects in Chhattisgarh should be registered.

If the project is not listed, do not assume it is fine. Ask the builder for the RERA registration number and verify it yourself. As of April 2024, public data showed 1,777 registered projects and 799 registered agents in Chhattisgarh, so the list is large and name search matters.

06Methods to check status, compared

The official portal is always the first source of truth. The other methods help when you need history across forums, or a warning when something changes.

07Orders, and the appeal to the Chhattisgarh REAT

If you are unhappy with an order of the Authority, the law gives you an appeal. The appellate body for Chhattisgarh is the Chhattisgarh Real Estate Appellate Tribunal, based in Raipur, set up under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016.

Who can appeal

Any person aggrieved by a direction, decision or order of the Authority or the adjudicating officer can appeal to the Tribunal.

Time limit

An appeal must be filed within sixty days from the date a copy of the order is received. The Tribunal can allow a late appeal if there is sufficient cause. Read the Act and the Chhattisgarh rules for exact forms and fees.

A promoter has an extra condition

If the order asks a promoter to pay money to an allottee, the Act requires the promoter to deposit the amount, or part of it, before the Tribunal hears the appeal. Allottees should know this because it affects how fast money can move.

What comes after

An order of the Appellate Tribunal can be challenged before the High Court. For Chhattisgarh that is the High Court at Bilaspur. Keep the status of each stage separate: Authority complaint, Tribunal appeal, High Court.
