The Karnataka Real Estate Regulatory Authority (KRERA) on July 28, 2026, issued notification regarding procedure to be followed in case of recovery of monetary and non-monetary reliefs in terms of orders passed on complaints filed.
Karnataka RERA has issued a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP), effective immediately, for enforcing orders passed by the Authority/Adjudicating Officer under Section 40 of the RERA Act read with Rules 25 and 26 of the Karnataka RERA Rules. Key steps:
• Compliance check (60 days): Authority verifies compliance by writing to both parties after 60 days from the order.
• Execution Petition: If non-compliant, the Decree Holder files an online Execution Petition with an updated Memo of Calculation.
• Notice & hearing: Both parties are notified and must appear within 2 weeks of registration of the petition.
• Further compliance window: If non-compliance is found, the Judgment Debtor gets 2 more weeks to comply; full compliance closes the petition.
• Asset disclosure (monetary reliefs): On continued default of monetary orders (Sec. 40(1)), the Judgment Debtor must file an affidavit of assets within 2 weeks; the Decree Holder may also assist by identifying assets.
• Satisfaction of order: Full compliance at this stage disposes of the petition as satisfied.
• Revenue Recovery Certificate: Continued default triggers a Revenue Recovery Certificate under Sec. 40(1)/Rule 25, sent to the jurisdictional Deputy Commissioner for attachment/auction of assets, including bank accounts.
• Non-monetary reliefs: For default on non-monetary orders (Sec. 40(2)), the Authority may either enforce the order as a civil court decree or transmit it to the jurisdictional Principal Civil Court under Rule 26.
• IT infrastructure: Karnataka RERA's IT Department must ensure digital systems support tracking execution proceedings from filing to disposal.
