Karnataka: RERA-registered projects to get four-month extension due to West Asia war
The Karnataka Real Estate Regulatory Authority is extending project deadlines by four months for developers affected by supply chain disruptions linked to the West Asia war. This move follows a central government advisory allowing for force majeure extensions due to the conflict.
Why it matters
This demonstrates how global geopolitical conflicts directly impact local real estate markets and consumer timelines.
The wait got longer for home buyers as the Real Estate Regulatory Authority Karnataka (K-RERA) is set to extend timelines for RERA-registered projects by four months, owing to disruptions in the supply of construction materials caused by the ongoing West Asia war.
This follows an advisory issued by the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) on Friday, asking all State regulatory authorities to extend project deadlines by four months for projects whose completion deadlines were on or after February 28, 2026.
The Confederation of Real Estate Developers’ Association of India (CREDAI) had petitioned RERA and MoHUA seeking a six-month extension for all project deadlines, citing supply chain disruptions. From March through June, the availability of construction materials such as steel, cement, vitrified tiles, and sanitary ware was severely affected due to disruptions in the supply of natural gas required for their production.
