State-specific variation. Maharashtra (MahaRERA), Haryana (HRERA) and a handful of other state authorities have notified their own rate of interest — generally tied to SBI MCLR plus 2 percentage points, but verify the exact formula and base rate on your state RERA website before relying on the figure.
⌖ §I / Formula
The math,
in the open.
Section 18 of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 entitles an allottee to interest from the promoter for delayed possession; Section 19(7) creates the reciprocal liability on the allottee for delayed instalments. The rate of interest is prescribed by Rule 15 (or the state equivalent) as the State Bank of India’s highest Marginal Cost of Funds Lending Rate plus two per cent.
Interest = Principal × rate × days ÷ (365 × 100)
rate = SBI MCLR + 2% (simple interest)
The rate above defaults to roughly 10.85% — the live SBI MCLR is adjusted by the bank periodically; check sbi.co.in MCLR for the current figure and adjust the slider accordingly.
