Dear Sir/Madam,
I have been cheated by promoter Mr Chetan Prakash Jindal of Jindal Constructions when I purchased a flat from them at Kundan Plaza, Teghoria. I along with some co-owners of the flat have purchased a covered parking area for which I had to pay an additional Rs 70, 000 apart from the cost of the flat. I have received possession of the flat in September but till date neither has he marked the space for individual covered parking nor has he kept any space for that. On asking about it he asks us to park our cars in the open common spaces and has simply refused to mark individual car parking spaces. Forget about covered parking facilities he has not even demarcated any space within the premises for car parking. Some co-owners are complaining that Mr Jindal had shown them a common passage (which is not at all his property but is an extension of the road in front of the flat) as a car parking space while the construction was still on and have already lodged a complaint in the local police station & local municipal corporation urging them to look into the matter.
Till date none of the co-owners of the flat who has purchased a car parking space has received a porperly demarcated space to keep their cars and I request on behalf of them to provide a solution to this issue.
Apart from this, he uses several arm twisting techniques to wriggle out more money than the agreed price of the flat. Like, he asked me to shell out Rs 50, 000 just 3 days before the date of registration, failing which he would not register the flat. When I refused to give him the money he asked me to either cancel the agreement and get a refund of 80% of the booking money or he will do the registration after one month as he has kept a clause in the sale agreement that if the date of full payment exceeds that of 45 days from the agreement date the purchaser has to pay an extra 19% per annum penalty. He plays such cheap tricks to trap the purchaser and it is not only me but he has done the same to everyone who has purchased the flat from him. Someone (I cannot name him without his permission) even had to pay an extra Rs 1, 50, 000 to get the flat registered. He will and has not given it to anyone any receipt of this amount so that we cannot get any legal remedy in this matter even after registration. This is the way the promoter Mr Chetan Prakash Jindal robs his customers of the hard earned money. All the co-owners of the flat have now decided to take a legal course against the builder. Could you please let us know the steps that could be take under the law and in consumer forum against the builder?
Your faithfully,
C Das
