Refund cheque bounced by a builder
07-Oct-2023 (In Cheque Bounce Law)
I had booked a flat by paying 2L. but even after 4 yrs I didn't see any progress in project so I cancelled the flat. Builder gave me a refund cheque but it bounced due to Insufficient funds. I am filing 138 and my laywer charged me 10K now but my lawyer is suggesting me to file a case in Consumer Court as well as asking me for 15K. Please suggest correct options for me to get fast resolution and correct amount to be paid.
Your advocate is giving you the correct advice. Based on your issue, 138 case for the cheque bounce is correct. Besides, since your builder has failed to make any progress in his construction, he has committed deficiency in service for which the appropriate remedy is to approach the Consumer Court.

Dear Sir/Ma'am,
Filing of 138IN case is a good decision. However, I would suggest to go for action under RERA Act instead of consumer court in case if the project is registered with Maharera. If the project is not registered under Maharera then you may go for consumer court for claiming compensation.
