How to Create a Lawyer Account on GujRERA 2.0 Portal — Step-by-Step Guide
GujRERA lawyer account creation is required for every advocate or lawyer engaged by a promoter to provide legal certificates for a RERA-registered real estate project in Gujarat. Under the RERA Act, a lawyer must furnish the encumbrance certificate, title certificate, and title report for any project they are assigned to.
These activities are completed through the GujRERA RERA 2.0 portal and require an active Lawyer user account linked to a valid Bar Council registration.

Common Issues
Bar Council number not recognized or details not auto-populating: Ensure the State Bar Council Number is entered correctly and that the corresponding Bar Council of India Registration Number is in the format COI/XXXX/XXXXXX. If the number is correct but details do not load, the Bar Council records may not be synced — contact GujRERA support.
Enrollment date mismatch: The State Bar Council Enrollment Date must match the date on your Bar Council enrollment certificate exactly. An incorrect date will prevent the form from validating.
Email or mobile OTP not received: Check your spam folder for the email OTP. Ensure the mobile number entered is active and can receive SMS. Both OTPs must be submitted within the session timeout.
