  • Yes, in many cases a real estate project with less than 500 sqm land but more than 8 apartments does need to be registered under RERA — because the exemption only applies if both land area is ≤ 500 sqm and number of apartments is ≤ 8. However, this depends on your state-specific RERA rules. For instance, in Maharashtra the requirement is stricter: both conditions must be violated for registration to be mandatory.  https://amrealtysolutions.com/aranyam_estate.html
