Oberoi Springs
Builder making arbitrary rules after possession

I have purchased a flat at Oberoi Springs - and have taken possession of the flat for fit-out purposes.

During the fit-out period, the builder has asked for a deposit of Rs 1 Lakh - which they would return only after 6 months of the work being completed.

Now during the fit-out work, our contractor out tiling work in the dry area up to the ceiling - whereas the builder's architect had "approved" only 3 feet of tiling.

Now the builder - who is currently responsible for building maintenance has stopped my fit-out work by not allowing my contractor to continue work till I remove the extra tiling in the dry area.

The question I have is - whether this is legal on the part of the builder and what the rights of the owner are in this matter?

After all - just doing some extra tiling is hardly something that demands such drastic action - what are the owner's rights in this matter?

What is the builder's legal right on such matters after handing over possession of the flat to the owner?
