I want to highlight how innocent people get cheated when they buy an apartment with the hope on living in it. The case is of Central Park 2 on Sohna Road, Gurgaon.
1. The builder launched a project showing 29 towers in 47.5 acres of land with open space of 20 acres. Towers 1 to 9 were launched 200, in early 2005 builder collected first installment and sent a "Draft" Apartment Buyer Agreement which promised that construction will be done in 36 months from start.
2. Builder took another installment for completion of excavation in 2006 but did not start the actual construction. the final apartment buyer agreement was only signed in 2007. This time, the builder quietly changed some clauses and drawings in the agreement.
3. In Setp 2010, builder received completion certificate for tower 1 to 9 from govt authorities. When possession was issued, owners started realizing that they had been cheated in the following ways:
a. Escalation charges of Rs. 8 lakhs had been imposed despite the delay.
b. Prime Location charge of Rs. 7.5 lakhs were applicable in 2 out of 3 apartments in each floor as they were facing the central 20 acre garden. The garden was not made, instead builder made a wall around towers 1 to 9 and separated them. Now - what was supposed to be a 47 acre project is only 10 acres.
c. clubhouse charges of Rs. 1 lakh was imposed but no clubhouse was constructed as shown. instead, builder made two room on rooftop of two buildings and said this is the clubhouse. How can that be clubhouse? 400 people paid 1 lakh each so 4 crores for two small rooms?
d. Apartment buyer agreement said builder would pay penalty for delay in possession Rs. 5 per sq ft for delay beyond 36 months. While actual delay was for over 35 months, builder gave penalty only for 5 months.
e. Promised facilities like nursery school, swimming pool etc were also removed without informing me.
f. Super area has been increased by over 100 Sq Ft by adding external building and rooftop rooms etc to the area.
I have estimated that my total compensation claim for damages for this apartment would be around Rs. 35 lakhs from the builder so I have filed a case against thee builder and my lawyer has assured that soon a stay order will stop the builder from selling any more property in the project.
For the 400 apartment owners, builder has done a scam of over 140 crores.
I hope everyone is aware before buying such property
