The policy is known as the Deen Dayal Awas Yojna (DDJAY) 2016 by the Authority, but the newspaper advertisement captions it as DDJAY 2024, which is “incorrect and misleading.” 

The Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA), Gurugram, has fined Yashvi Homes Pvt Ltd Rs 25 lakh for publishing a “misleading advertisement” of a real estate project under the state government scheme, Deen Dayal Jan Awas Yojna (DDJAY) 2016, in a mainstream daily. 

In a suo motu ruling, RERA Gurugram described the advertisement as “completely misleading.” Yashvi Homes is developing Golden Gate Residency, a residential project in Sector 3, Farukhnagar, Gurugram, under the DDJAY scheme. 

The policy is known as the Deen Dayal Awas Yojna (DDJAY) 2016, as per the Authority, but the newspaper advertisement captions it as DDJAY 2024, which is “incorrect and misleading.” 

The Authority stated that the promoter failed to supply the required project registration number and website address.

By Section 11(2) of the RERA Act of 2016, the promoter must prominently display the Authority’s web address in any advertisement or prospectus that it publishes. This website should contain all the information about the registered project that needs to be entered correctly, including the RERA registration number. 

The Authority spokesperson said, “The amenities promised in the advertisement do not correspond with the project’s approved layout plan submitted by the promoter at the time of registration does not include provisions for amenities like a school, clubhouse, swimming pool, badminton court, half basketball court, among others.” 

According to a spokesperson for the Authority, real estate promoters face legal action if they continue to use “misleading advertisements.”
