The full explanation

Escrow Agents (banks or financial institutions) must comply with strict rules for disbursing funds from a project�s Escrow Account.

These penalties ensure that the banking institutions managing project funds are held accountable, guaranteeing that investors' money is only spent on actual construction progress as verified by RERA�s technical auditors.
