property share dispute with builder in remodeling reconstruction
22-Mar-2025 (In Property Law)
Need consultation in property share dispute with builder in remodeling and reconstruction. Previously our share was one floor out of 3 now builder is making 5 floors with basement without any compensation to us. How to deal with this builder? Need help
You may challenge the builder’s actions legally, as any deviation from the agreed terms requires your consent. First, review your development agreement or joint venture contract to determine your rightful share. If the builder has constructed additional floors without compensating you, you can issue a legal notice demanding your rightful share or compensation. Additionally, you may approach RERA or the civil court to seek redressal, including an injunction on unauthorized construction. If fraud is involved, you can also file a criminal complaint.
Let me know if you need further assistance.
But the practical approach gives better results
The resolution of this matter will largely depend on the terms outlined in your contract with the builder, as well as any agreements established with the other owners of the building. It's important to review the documents carefully. Specifically, does your sale deed provide any information regarding the floor-to-area ratio (FAR) of the plot? Understanding the FAR can significantly impact development possibilities and usage of the property, so it's worth examining if it’s addressed in your documentation.
Dear Client
You must have entered into an Agreement, we would have to refer to the same to establish the rights and liabilities of the builder, in case the construction was not authorised/allowed, we would need to apply for an injunction against the builder.
