What is difference between covered car parking & open car parking ? Can builder sell covered car parking like podium/stilt ( covered parking from top ) legally ? Can builder also include such parking in agreement of sales ?

As the name suggests.. open car park does not have any cover..open car parks cannot be sold legally. Once the society is formed, the society can issue open car parks to the members for some nominal fee...
Builder can sell it legally and he includes the covered car park in the agreement. yes legally he can include it..

go with close parking if you can. open parking doesnt fit well especially during the monsoon season.

Matter of fact is he can sell neither open or closed legally in agreement in agreement separate cost of parking is not mentioned and also it is called as reserved not sold or alloted to buyer.

BUILDER IN NOIDA HAS COLLECTED RS.2 LACS IN OCT.'09 TOWARDS COVERED PARKING (BANK TRANSFER). FLAT WAS DUE TO BE DELIVERED AT THE END OF DEC.10. HOWEVER, CONSTRUCTION DELAYED AND NOT GIVEN POSSESSION SO FAR.
IN THE LIGHT OF SUPREME COURT RULING, WHETHER WE CAN CLAIM REFUND OF THIS AMOUNT FROM THE BUILDER AND ADJUST THE SAME AGAINST FINAL / BALANCE PAYMENT AT THE TIME OF HANDING OVER THE FLAT?
SOMEONE WHO IS WELL VERSED WITH THE APEX COURT RULING, MAY KINDLY RESPOND.

Per Supreme court ruling - open car parking, stilt parking space is part of Super built area, hence the builder cannot sell this two parking categories as builder has already sold flats on Super built area (which includes this two parking space). Selling stilt and open car parks leads to double selling of the same area. But still this practise is rampant due to obvious network of builder, Municipal corp, politicians.
Large portion of the parking money is taken by builders in cash as they cannot show white money from the parking space as it has been artifically sold in Flat area.
