The Flat Purchase Agreement is a crucial legal instrument in Indian real estate transactions, designed to protect the interests of both buyers and sellers in residential property dealings. This document is mandatory under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act 2016 (RERA) and must comply with various state-specific real estate regulations. It is used when purchasing new or resale flats/apartments, containing detailed specifications of the property, payment schedules, completion timelines, and possession terms. The agreement includes essential elements required by Indian contract law, property law, and consumer protection regulations, making it a fundamental document for property transactions in India's residential real estate sector. Typically used in both primary sales (directly from developers) and secondary market transactions, the Flat Purchase Agreement serves as evidence of the sale and basis for property registration.
