Circular TNRERA/A3/1483/2026-2, Advertisement and Promotion of Real Estate Projects
The Tamil Nadu Real Estate Regulatory Authority issued Circular TNRERA/A3/1483/2026-2 dated 3 July 2026 to amend its earlier circular on major and minor advertising violations and related minimum penalties. Every reference to "Form-C" in the earlier circular dated 24 June 2026 must be read as "Form-C and Form-F, if applicable".
What the circular does
Circular TNRERA/A3/1483/2026-2, issued by the Tamil Nadu Real Estate Regulatory Authority on 3 July 2026, clarifies an earlier circular concerning advertisements and promotions for real estate projects in print, electronic and social media. It changes how references to forms in the earlier circular must be read.
The clarification becomes part of the Tamil Nadu Real Estate Regulatory Authority circular dated 24 June 2026. It does not replace the earlier circular or reproduce its complete list of violations and penalties.
The specific change
Circular TNRERA/A3/1483/2026-2 makes one stated correction:
- Wherever the words "Form-C" appear in the circular dated 24 June 2026, they must be read as "Form-C and Form-F, if applicable".
- Form-F is therefore included only where it applies.
- The clarification forms part of the earlier circular rather than operating as a separate penalty framework.
What the earlier circular covers
The Tamil Nadu Real Estate Regulatory Authority circular dated 24 June 2026 categorised violations of its directions on real estate project advertising and promotion as either "Major" or "Minor".
According to Circular TNRERA/A3/1483/2026-2, the earlier circular also:
- covers advertisements and promotions in print, electronic and social media;
- categorises different violations of the Authority's directions;
- prescribes minimum penalties for those violations; and
- bases those minimum penalties on the cost of the relevant real estate project.
Circular TNRERA/A3/1483/2026-2 does not state the individual violations, penalty amounts or project cost categories.
Who may be affected
Circular TNRERA/A3/1483/2026-2 is relevant to real estate projects subject to the Tamil Nadu Real Estate Regulatory Authority's advertising and promotion directions. Anyone checking compliance with the earlier circular must consider both Form-C and Form-F where Form-F applies, rather than treating every reference as limited to Form-C.
Property buyers and professionals reviewing project advertisements can note that the Authority categorises advertising violations as major or minor, but the details and minimum penalties must be checked in the earlier circular.
