Refund after cancellation of Flat


30-Nov-2023 (In Consumer Court Law)
Hi . I have recently cancelled my flat which was booked in 2015 . Based on the progress from last 1 year , builder managed to complete only 1 floor out of 26 . Plus based on his flase commitments and intentions.I decided to go for cancellation . Total Amount paid to builder is 5 lakhs on booking plus 16 Lakhs disbursed from bank. As per builder buyer agreement , if I cancel the flat that 10% of total cost of flat will be deducted and rest of the amount will be refunded in installment. I have been following up with my builder from more than a month for refund . I have received a email stating amount will be refunded in 5 - 6 months which I can not accept at all. I need your advise for below points . 1) I had taken a subvention scheme based on which builder was liable to pay EMI to bank till I get the possession. Since I have cancelled my flat , builder has stopped paying EMI . should I pay emi to bank till the time builder refund me 2) except consumer court what could a legal option

Did you make payment by cash or cheque?

You can issue a legal notice to the builder for refunding of your booking amount. If there is no response, you file a case in consumer forum against the builder.

I believe that the Agreement must be having an Arbitration Clause and therefore you can initiate Arbitration. that is the most efficient way to get you grievance redressed as now a days consumer forums are loaded with work and lot of time would be consumed.

First of all issue himlegal notice and mention specifically what was decided between both of you also demand entire amount and also claim amount for mental harassment. If he is not responding then file complaint against him under consumer court also book him under penal provisions.
