As I understand you have transferred the money online so must have transferred it for a specific unit or for specifications described there and on some conditions. You can inform us in detail all the facts.

The builder cant hold your money outside agreed terms and conditions and in which case you can demand refund. The first step would be to send a legal notice now and after that you may also file a complaint in District Forum (Consumer court). You may contact us with all the details and papers, to take it up for you.

Online fund transfer receipt with builder information is enough to lodge a complaint before the Jurisdictional police station or before the Consumer Forum to file a complaint to claim back your amount.

Dear Sharad, your duty is taken the payment receipt but you have not taken, you don't worry, if the said builder has issued any single paper in respect of your booking plot, if yes, you have every right to get your hard earned amount, if you want my legal service I will do it.
