RERA Appellate Tribunal Has Appeal & Revision Powers; Interest Payable After Pre-Deposit: Allahabad High Court

The Allahabad High Court examined the powers of the RERA Appellate Tribunal and clarified that it holds both appellate and revisional jurisdiction. The case involved disputes tied to land acquisition and obligations between developers and buyers. The Court also laid down that interest payable under a RERA order becomes enforceable only after the required pre-deposit under Section 43(5) is made by the appellant. This harmonises the interests of homebuyers and developers by ensuring that appeals are not misused to delay payment while also protecting appellants from premature enforcement. The judgment highlights procedural safeguards and statutory compliance essential for RERA adjudication.
