NEW DELHI: The Delhi Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) has announced NBCC Ltd. directed not to take any coercive action against Rajeshwari Realty Pvt. Ltd. over electricity or maintenance costs, while an appeal in the case is pending before the Real Estate Appellate Tribunal (REAT).The order was passed by a bench comprising chairman Anand Kumar and member Devesh Singh. During the hearing, lawyers for both parties informed the Authority that NBCC has already appealed to REAT, but no stay has been granted so far. The appeal was heard at a hearing on March 9, 2026.
Counsel for Rajeshwari Realty told the authority that NBCC had issued a demand letter dated January 30, 2026, seeking payment of electricity dues. The applicant has sought that the PSU be restrained from taking any coercive action for recovery of electricity or maintenance charges while the appeal is pending.
Taking note of the submissions and the pendency of the appeal, the Authority directed NBCC not to take any coercive action against the applicant until the next hearing. The matter was referred to the Delhi RERA on March 18, 2026 for further hearing. The dispute is part of a larger ongoing dispute between NBCC and Rajeshwari Realty over a commercial project in Saket. In previous proceedings, issues relating to the regulatory status of the project and its compliance under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 were contested, following which NBCC moved the appellate court challenging the regulator’s directions.
Rajeshwari Realty, one of the major beneficiaries of the project, approached RERA seeking interim protection after NBCC raised new payment demands. The latest directive from the Authority ensures that no remedial action will be taken against the allottee while the appeal continues.
