Before this, the fines imposed varied between ₹2 lakh to ₹10 lakh but this is the first case where the fine is beyond the usual amount.

According to MahaRERA’s policies, the registration number shall be printed in bold uppercase letters and it is mandatory for every advertisement to be registered with the website.
