Real Estate and Construction

We act for developers, institutional investors, corporate occupiers and lenders. Title investigation and search reports. Land acquisition, aggregation and the agricultural land restrictions that vary sharply between states. Development agreements, joint development and area sharing structures. Registration and stamp duty planning under the applicable state schedule, which is a design question at structuring stage and an expensive discovery afterwards. Compliance under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 and the state rules, including registration, escrow discipline, disclosure and the allottee complaints that follow a delay. Construction contracting, engineering procurement and construction arrangements, and the delay, variation and termination disputes that follow. Corporate occupier leasing at portfolio level. Enforcement of security over immovable property.
