Builder gave possession but not light meter and other pending work


02-Oct-2024 (In Property Law)
Hi, I have a shop that had gone in redevelopment and post the redevelopment the builder has given us the possession of the same but has not installed electricity meter and also has kept a lot of work pending. My questions are: 1) if there’s any legal way to pressurise the builder to put the electricity meter as soon as possible? 2) If the builder sends out a light bill later asking to pay then how do I know that it was accurate and from the date of possession only and not from before that.

Yes, you can take legal steps to pressurize the builder to install the electricity meter. Here’s what you can do: Send a Legal Notice: You can send a formal legal notice to the builder asking him to complete the pending work, including installing the electricity meter, as per the redevelopment agreement. File a Complaint: If the builder does not act, you can file a complaint with the consumer court for deficiency in service. The legal notice will serve as an evidence that you were not having appropriate electric meter
