there are two views on this - Legal and Practical legally, without OC - you should not buy the flat. practically, even if no OC - if you like the flat then buy the flat and sooner or later the Govt will help the Society to get OC... So, depends on you what view suits you and adopt !

This is my response to you: 1. Without OC means there is no permission to occupy the premises; 2. The municipal authority may evict you or any other persons; 3. You can still make a search at the office of the builder, municipal authority or the society; 4. Consult a local lawyer, with full facts and then take steps.

It is not legal to occupy an old building without a certificate of occupancy. What are the possible consequences of occupying a building that is older without an occupancy permit? The consequences of occupying a building that does not have an occupancy certificate include legal issues, penalties and even the demolition of the structure.
