Law and context

RERA section 14 addresses adherence to sanctioned plans and project specifications, including consent requirements and specified exceptions. Building and planning permissions remain separate legal questions.

Practical next step

Preserve the original and revised plans, promoter’s explanation, consent request and the agreement. Identify exactly how the unit or common areas would change and obtain advice before responding.
