When is possession at Merlin Next?
There are 2 different dates on record. The promoter committed to 31 Dec 2025 in its own RERA filing. The authority’s current public record shows Dec 2025.
None of these is an occupancy certificate. A declared completion date is what the promoter filed, not proof of delivery. What to ask for: Request a current regulator status record and any project-specific extension, correction or close-out instrument for HIRA/P/KOL/2020/000987.
