  2. hi, i have a complaint for supertech builder. i bought a flat in eco village 2, greater noida, up, in october 2017. the builder promised to facilitate the home loan from LnT finance or indiabulls since it would not be possible for us to do loan formality since I am an NRI. they also promised to provide monthly rent of rs 6500 starting November 2017, till possession. I have done the complete down payment. neither i am getting the loan disbursed nor the rent as committed. im getting new contact people everyday but the matter is not getting resolved. kindly help!

    1. As per the provisions of the RERA Act, refund of the down payment can be asked as a legal remedy by filing a RERA Complaint but before doing so we need your Builder-Buyer agreement and Allotment Letter so that the preliminary assessment can be done.

      Please drop us a mail at rera@centrik.in or else contact at 9717790021.

    1. developer liable to pay the same interest as the EMI being paid by the consumer to the bank back to the consumer

Pls suggest what to do and how RERA complaint can be filed for getting money back with interest from this builder. Thanking in advance.

  17. I purchased a plot in Wave hi-tech city NH24 Ghaziabad. I paid to builder :1) 95 % amount basic booking amount, 2) peripheral development charges and electrical substation charges. However complete development of project area are not done. Only balance amount is 5% of basic cost to get registry as well as physical possession of plot. Now the builder started asking electric meter connection, water connection, gas line connection wifi,club charges in addition to 5% basic amount. One thing for information is that Plot is neither physical possession taken nor registry is done. Club is also not constructed . WiFi also not there. builder is also asking maintenance charges along with maintenance charges .
    The builder Wave City is asking unfair demand in different head. In case not paid they are pressurising us to pay it with penalty.
    So you are requested to suggest me what to do now.

  20. Dear Sir,
    I have purchased a retail shop in Lotus Broadwalk Sector-150, Noida around 1.5 years ago. They have taken initial payment and allotted the shop no. As the price in that area goes up, now builder is cancelling the project and asking to take the refund. They have malafied intentions to sell the project to the other builder or relaunch the project at a higher price after some time. I am not in favour to take my money back. I will take the shop as allotted by the builder. Please suggest, what are the legal steps I can take to protect myself from builder’s hooliganism?

  21. Sir, I have booked one plot in Gaur Yamuna City through brokerage firm Squareyards through payment plan of 20:80. 20% payment shall be done within 45 days. I paid the 10% amount on booking. It was agreed that remaining 10% will be paid within 45 days. Cheque for same has been handed over to Squareyards. When I enquire regarding BBA with Gaursons they mailed me that the plot allotment has been cancelled and has been allotted to someone else. Please advise whether I can approach RERA for booked plot allotment.
