Who is an allottee under RERA?

Under RERA, an allottee is broadly the person to whom a plot, apartment or building in a real-estate project is allotted, sold or otherwise transferred, subject to the statutory definition.

Why this matters

• Helps buyers understand whether RERA rights and obligations may apply to them.
• Clarifies that the statutory meaning is tied to an allotment, sale or transfer in a real-estate project.

Why the definition matters

Many rights and responsibilities in RERA are expressed in relation to an allottee. Understanding the statutory term helps a buyer read project records, agreements, authority orders and complaint procedures more accurately.

Important boundary

The Act’s definition should be read directly for the precise legal scope. Whether a particular person qualifies in a specific transaction can depend on the facts and applicable law.

Investor Setu perspective

Investor Setu should explain statutory terms in plain language while always preserving a direct path to the official law.
