Seller refusing to do sale deed after agreement to sale


17-Sep-2023 (In Property Law)
We have purchased independent ground floor in a triple story building we did agreement in June and paid more than 10 percent amount at time of agreement and rest to be paid at time of sale deed and last date on agreement was 30 September 17. As property was not complete he started asking for money to renovate and complete left work. Then he started pressurising us for more money and then we told we will not pay until you complete work and will pay only at time of sale deed. Now 15 days to go he says give me 2 lacs more than agreement otherwise I will not do sale deed. Please advise what legal action and preparation we should do before hand only as last date we will appear in registrar's office on 29 September but still want to know what else we can do before hand to have strong case against him and his harassment.

If you are interest in said floor, you may give amount and take undertaking in writing at the back of the agreement. If you are not interested then no need to pay more. And you don't worry, the day when is your sale deed, you reach there with amount and if he does not come, make an affidavit for your presence at Sub- Registrar, where ever your sale deed is to be registered. If such person not come, then you have a legal right to sue him for specific performance.
