How FlatNama works
Where the data comes from, what the figures mean and how prices are worked out.
Where the data comes from
Project facts come from public project registrations on the MahaRERA website. Figures are as reported by builders to MahaRERA; FlatNama does not verify them. Many project pages also show what buyers paid, taken from sale records registered with the Department of Registration and Stamps, Maharashtra. These may not include every sale, so treat prices as based on the sales available to us.
Phases
Each phase has its own page with its own MahaRERA registration. In search, phases of one project are grouped under one name so you can find them together.
What "launched" means
A project is launched when it is registered with MahaRERA. Builders may not advertise or sell flats before this, so the registration month is the launch month we show.
Construction stages
Early stage: the structure (RCC) has not started yet. Mid-construction: the structure is being built. Nearing possession: the structure is complete and final finishes are below 90%; finishing and the occupancy certificate typically take 12–18 months from here. Ready to move: final finishes are 90% or more, or MahaRERA shows the project as Completed.
What the figures mean
"Possession date" is the completion date the builder has registered with MahaRERA; "extended by" shows how much later it is than the first date registered. Construction progress is as reported by the builder; for projects with several buildings it is the average across them. "Final finishes" are the last works before handover, such as lifts, services and common areas, not the finishes inside each flat. "Units booked" is the number of units the builder reports as booked or sold, out of all units in the project; units can include shops and offices. Where a builder has stopped reporting bookings, we show the last figures reported. Where a project has never reported bookings, we say so.
What changed since the last update
Project pages show what changed between the two most recent updates: units booked, total units and structure (RCC) progress. Where a reported figure went down, we show it exactly as MahaRERA reported it.
Comparisons
Each project is compared with projects of a similar size in the same PIN code, launched at around the same time. "Typical" means the middle value. Comparisons are factual, not a judgement about any project.
What buyers paid
For many projects, FlatNama shows the price per sq ft that flats actually sold for, from government sale records, and the range most buyers paid for each flat size. It is the price of the flat alone; stamp duty, registration and GST are paid on top.
Prices
On priced projects, the price per sq ft is the level that 80% of registered sales were at or below, counting balconies and terrace in the size (total internal area). A price needs at least 3 registered sales. Studios under 450 sq ft are priced separately.
How to read a card
Every project is drawn as a building. The picture comes from the project’s latest MahaRERA progress report: it shows progress, not the number of floors.
