CREDAI West Bengal has expressed support for the state government's new Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) designed to enhance building safety and regulatory compliance. The association has formally requested an eight-month extension for project approvals and completion validity, citing disruptions from recent events.
This initiative follows a mandatory audit prompted by a warehouse collapse. As of the latest report, scrutiny has been completed for 585 out of 706 identified projects. CREDAI has pledged full cooperation with the government in the ongoing examination of remaining projects.
The move aims to bolster investor confidence and revitalize construction activities within the region. CREDAI emphasized its commitment to RERA compliance and advised homebuyers to verify developer credentials before purchasing properties registered under RERA.
