Home buyers file complaint in NCDRC against Maha housing authority

NAGPUR: Delayed possession of flats compelled home buyers to move National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC), New Delhi against Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA). The commission has issued a notice to the state authority in this regard.

The complaint, Mitali Cooperative Housing Society, claimed that 320 prospective buyers had paid in full to the tune of Rs 45 lakhs each to MHADA when its ‘City Project’ flat scheme, on Subhash Road, was launched in 2012 and were promised possession. MHADA collected Rs128 crores from its customers.

Complainants through counsel Tushar Mandlekar, also claim that four illegal extensions were given to the contracted company M/s IVRCL Limited, the latest till November 31, 2014. The contractor has not completed construction till today.

They further claim that MHADA has also failed to procure statutory permissions like building completion certificate, occupancy certificate, environmental clearance and fire no objection certificate. Facilities like podium garden, firefighting system, swimming pool, club house, etc were promised by MHADA but have been completed either.

The complainant have prayed for compensation of Rs37 lakhs per buyer with interest rate of 16% per annum from each date of payment. They have also sought valid possession of flats, sale-deeds and statutory certificates from MHADA, Mandlekar informed.
