legal recourse against builder for delay in possession of flat
05-Mar-2023 (In Property Law)
I booked an independent floor with in the year 2009. The builder has taken full period since then (construction linked) and is yet to hand over the possession. As per the contract, the builder is to pay a late payment penalty. However, he is refusing to pay the same citing that the delay was due to conditions beyond his control. I am currently paying rent and incurring huge financial loss due to the delay. What is my legal recourse?
The case is of delayed possession by a builder.
You can initiate a legal action against the builder by filing a consumer complaint in the appropriate consumer forum and ask the court for compensation in the form of interest for the entire period of delay, for an immediate possession subject to your satisfaction of completion of work and for other compensation towards legal costs etc.
