Buyers said that they could not take possession of their flats because contrary to what the developer had told the apex court, many flats were not ready for possession as they did not have an OC, which is mandatory prior to handing over possession.
While the developer was ready to refund the initial amount paid by the homebuyer, the authority ordered the developer to sign the sale deed and handover the plot.
In this case the developer s subsidiary sold an apartment to the buyer worth Rs 1.2 crore claiming that the highrise would have 27 floors with RERA approval. However, the project had only 20 floors.
