How to Apply for GujRERA Conciliation Forum — Step-by-Step Guide

Step-by-step guide for filing a Conciliation Forum application on the GujRERA 2.0 portal. Covers the Conciliation Registration form, ₹1,000 payment, stamp number, and the respondent consent process with OTP verification.

How to Apply for GujRERA Conciliation Forum

The GujRERA Conciliation Forum is an alternative dispute resolution mechanism established under Section 32 of the RERA Act 2016. It provides allottees and promoters a structured, cost-effective mediation process without requiring court attendance or advocate fees. The forum is facilitated by nominees of the Buyer Association, Promoter Association, and a RERA-appointed conciliation consultant.

Critical requirement: Conciliation proceeds only if all respondents give their consent. If any respondent selects No, the case is closed and the applicant is advised to file a formal complaint instead (Form A or Form B).

Before You Begin

  • You must have a registered account on https://gujrera.gujarat.gov.in/. New users must Sign Up first.
  • Have the Project Registration Number of the disputed project ready.
  • Prepare supporting documents — sale deed, booking form, payment receipts, correspondence with the promoter.
  • Note: there is no AD Post requirement for conciliation (unlike Form A/B complaints).

Step 1: Log In and Open the Create Complaint / Conciliation Option

Log in to the GujRERA portal and go to your Citizen Dashboard. On the right-side panel, click Create Complaint/Conciliation.

Click "Create Complaint/Conciliation" from the right-side panel on your Citizen Dashboard

Step 2: Choose Conciliation — Select Yes

A popup appears: "Do you want to opt for conciliation?"

Read the Objective and Advantages. Click Yes to proceed to the Conciliation Registration form.

Click Yes — this opens the Conciliation Registration form in ECOURT. Click No to file a formal complaint instead

Tip: If you expect the promoter to refuse consent, file a formal Form A complaint directly (click No). Conciliation is best when both sides are open to mediation.


Step 3: Search and Select the Project

In the PROJECT DETAILS section, type the Project Name, Registration Number, or Promoter Name and click the search button.

Step 9: Track Conciliation Status on Your Dashboard

After reviewing, the promoter scrolls to "WOULD YOU LIKE TO GIVE CONSENT?" (or "ARE YOU AGREE WITH THIS CONSENT?"), selects Yes or No, and clicks Submit. A Validate OTP popup appears requiring the Mobile OTP sent to the promoter's registered mobile number.

Common Issues

Respondent not receiving consent request: The respondent must be registered on the GujRERA portal as a user. If the promoter's email in the respondent section is not registered, they cannot log in to give consent. Ensure you enter the promoter's registered GujRERA email when filling respondent details.

Respondent says No — case closed: If any respondent denies consent, the conciliation case is closed. The portal will display this status. You must then file a Form A or Form B formal complaint through the same "Create Complaint/Conciliation" option (click No on the conciliation popup this time).

Payment deducted but stamp number not received: Note the GujRERA Unique Token Number from the payment screen. Contact GujRERA via Support Request under Finance & Accounts, or email epay-rera@gujarat.gov.in with the token number within 7 days.

Conciliation status stuck at "consent is awaited": Check the Complaint No. in your My Complaints tab. The conciliation cannot proceed until all listed respondents respond. You can contact the respondent directly and ask them to log in to their Promoter Dashboard → Conciliation Consent Requests for Me tab.
