What is the difference between VDA approved and UP-RERA approved plots?
A VDA approval means the Varanasi Development Authority has sanctioned the layout or building map and its land use. A UP-RERA registration applies to projects sold by developers, such as plotted townships and apartments, and lets you check the promoter, approved plans and completion date on the UP-RERA portal. A single plot sold by an owner needs VDA sanction and clear title; a developer's township needs UP-RERA registration.
