It is very difficult to presume the details about the land area conveyed to you by the builder (proportionate share) is less than what has been promised to you prior to purchase of the unit in the premises. It should be matched with the area intended to be transferred if any agreement has been entered upon and the copy of the deed of conveyance wherein the land area transferred and conveyed in your favour and in favour of all the other unit holders. As regards all other complications which you all are facing with the builders can be adjudicated through the consumer forum of the state where the premises is situated and you will get the perfect result by instituting a case in consumer forum through good lawyer and request him to seek all reliefs in the complaint including mental agony and compensation ( including late delivery of possession if so be the case is) without any further delay. As you aware that presently our National Consumer forum has decided number of cases against big , giant promoter and your case is excately like wise case wherein the promoter sold out dreams to the purchaser but in actual nothing has happened with them. Apart from the civil action you may take criminal action also with consultancy of an advocate in this regard.
