Need to look into your deed which was registered and you can only claim as per the agreed terms of the contract. What was there in the deed regarding possession that needs to be looked in to and what would happen if there is failure in delivering possession

it is absolutely your right to seek compensation if the related clause contained in the agreement which you have entered into with the seller of the flat. ( period under which he has to complete the deal)

Please check all clauses of the sale agreement.There must a clause stating when the property possession to be handed over to the buyer by th e seller and the circumstances under which the time line can not be met by the seller. If contractual breach on the part of the seller is found and no breach of contractual obligations occurred on your part, you are entitled to liquidated damage (if sale agreement provides for the same) or general damage and interest thereon from the seller.
Since handing over not yet been completed please tread cautiously​.
Kindly do not enter into any plain correspondences with the seller.Immediately contact lawRato for further instructions and act as per advice of lawRato only.

Dear client ,
As per the details provided by you I would suggest you that as your case is regarding delay in delivery of possession of resale flat then you can file a suit for damages due to late in delivery of possession against the owner and you can also file a criminal case for breach of trust.

Dear Client,
You can file a case in the Permanent Lok Adalat for your claim. Secondly, you may also claim by filing a case in the Haryana Real Estate Regulatory Authority (HRERA) by blaming that there is delay in the possession as per Contract.
