Do Greater Noida projects finish on time? 957 filings, counted

In one paragraph

Across 957 Gautam Buddha Nagar registrations with a usable pair of dates on our mirror of the UP-RERA register, read 29 July 2026, 519 carry a completion date later than the one originally declared, and 438 still stand on the date first filed. Among those that moved, the median slip is 6 months, the mean is 20.1 months because a long tail drags it, and the largest is 122 months. The number that actually matters is the one split by age: 503 of the 704 filings registered between 2017 and 2019 have revised, against none of the 97 registered in 2025 or 2026. A register revision is a changed date, not a record of when keys were handed over, because the register does not record handover.

What the register can and cannot answer

A UP-RERA filing carries a declared completion date, and if the promoter applies for more time it carries a later one. Comparing the two across every registration in the district tells you how often declared dates move, and by how much. It does not tell you when anybody actually got their keys, because the register does not record handover. Every figure on this page is about dates on a form. Read it that way and it is solid; read it as a delivery record and it is wrong.

Of 966 Gautam Buddha Nagar registrations, 957 carry both dates in a form that parses; the other 9 do not and are excluded from everything below.

More than half have moved the date

519 of 957 registrations, about 54 percent, show a completion date later than the one first declared. The remaining 438 still stand on the original. Among those that moved, the median slip is 6 months, though the mean is 20.1 months because the tail is long.

So the typical revision is modest, around half a year, and a substantial minority is not modest at all: 83 registrations moved by more than three years, and the largest single slip on this register is 122 months. The register also carries 852 extension records across 526 registrations, which means a filing that extends once has often extended again.

The part that changes how you read any single filing

A headline of 54 percent is close to useless on its own, because a registration from 2018 has had eight years in which to revise and one from this year has had months. Split by the year of registration, the picture is completely different.

2023 to 20248034 percent37 months
2025 to 20269700 percentnone to measure

503 of the 704 filings from 2017 to 2019 have revised. None of the 97 from 2025 or 2026 has. Not one. That is not because the recent cohort is better run; it is because none of them is near its date yet.

Which gives the practical rule this whole page exists to support. When you read a new registration and see an empty extension column, it is telling you almost nothing, because every new registration has an empty extension column. The same empty column on a filing from 2018, which has sat through the years when 503 of its contemporaries moved, is real evidence. Weigh a clean record by how much time it has survived.

One caution on the middle rows: the 2023 to 2024 cohort shows a median slip of 37 months, but that is computed from only 3 revisions, so treat it as an anecdote rather than a rate.

What to do with this when you are buying

Three things follow, and none of them needs anybody's opinion. First, find the registration number and read both dates yourself; if they differ, the date has moved and you should ask why in writing. Second, check how old the filing is before you take a clean record as reassurance. Third, ask the promoter directly, in writing, what handover date they are committing to, because that is the thing the register cannot tell you and the thing you actually care about. What counts as a normal document set and period on a filing is set out in our read of all 966 district registrations, and our register reads on individual projects are collected at vidastu.com/insights.

Method, so you can reproduce it

Every figure is a count over our mirror of the public UP-RERA register for Gautam Buddha Nagar, read 29 July 2026 and computed 23 September 2026. Slip is the number of months between the declared completion date and the latest completion date on the same registration. Registrations where either date does not parse are excluded and counted above. No project or promoter is named anywhere on this page, and nothing here is taken from a portal listing or a marketing site. The records are browsable at upreratracker.com and the authority is up-rera.in.

FAQ

Do RERA-registered projects in Greater Noida finish on time?
On the register, more than half have moved the date at least once. Of 957 Gautam Buddha Nagar registrations with a usable pair of dates, 519 carry a completion date later than first declared and 438 do not, read 29 July 2026. Among those that moved, the median slip is 6 months. That is a count of revisions on the register, not a measure of delivery, because the register records dates rather than handovers.
How much do completion dates usually slip?
Among the 519 registrations that moved, the median slip is 6 months and the middle half falls between 6 and 26 months. The mean is 20.1 months, pulled up by a long tail: 277 slipped 1 to 6 months, 32 slipped 7 to 12 months, 75 slipped 13 to 24 months, 52 slipped 25 to 36 months, 83 slipped more than 36 months. The largest single slip on this register is 122 months.
Is a project with no extension on its RERA record a safe bet?
Less reassuring than it looks, and the age of the filing is why. Of the 97 registrations dated 2025 or 2026, none has revised its completion date yet, because none has come close to it. Of the 704 dated 2017 to 2019, 503 have. A clean date column on a filing from last year tells you the promoter has not needed more time yet; the same clean column on a filing from 2018 is real evidence.
Does a revised RERA completion date mean the project is late?
Not on its own, and this is the distinction that matters most on this page. The register records the date the promoter has declared and any later date that replaces it. It does not record the day a flat was actually handed over. A revised date means the declared date moved. A project can revise once and deliver on the new date, and a project can hold its original date and still hand over late. Use the register for what it records and ask separately, in writing, about handover.
How many extensions are on the Gautam Buddha Nagar register?
852 extension records across 526 registrations, read 29 July 2026, so registrations that extend often extend more than once. Set against 966 registrations in the district, that is the base rate to read any single filing against.
Where do these numbers come from?
They are counts over our mirror of the public UP-RERA register for Gautam Buddha Nagar, read 29 July 2026 and computed 23 September 2026. Of 966 registrations, 957 have both a declared and a latest completion date that parse; the remaining 9 do not and are excluded from every figure above. No portal or marketing source is involved, and no project or promoter is named on this page.
