What the checklist covers

The TNRERA project registration document checklist is directed mainly at promoters and applicants seeking registration of a building or layout project. It requires Form A and identity details for an individual, or registration and management details for a firm. Joint venture applications must also include the landowner's identity, address, contact details and photograph.

The checklist does not impose a filing requirement on property buyers. Buyers may nevertheless find the listed records relevant when examining what information is expected for project registration.

The TNRERA checklist requires:

  • PAN details and a copy of the PAN card.
