Hi, I have a peculier case where we have purchased a property from a builder in 2016. However till today the builder has not constructed the property and hence we approached RERA to get our money refunded for which the RERA judge has given the judgement in out fafour and asked the builder to pay the money with interest. It is going to be more than a year but the builder has not given back the money, what to do?
Ans: In such a situation, you can take the following steps to enforce the RERA judgment and get your money refunded with interest:
Legal Action: Since the builder hasn't complied with the RERA judgment, you can initiate legal proceedings to enforce the judgment. Consult with a lawyer who specializes in property and RERA cases to guide you through the legal process.
Enforcement of Order: File an execution petition with the RERA authority to enforce the judgment. Provide all necessary documents, including the RERA judgment and communication with the builder, to support your case.
Consumer Court: Consider filing a complaint with the consumer court for deficiency in service and unfair trade practices. The consumer court can also order the builder to refund your money with interest and compensation for the delay.
Police Complaint: If necessary, file a police complaint against the builder for non-compliance with the RERA judgment. Keep all communication and documentation ready as evidence.
Public Grievance: Raise a public grievance against the builder through RERA's online portal or other relevant platforms to bring attention to your case.
Consult with RERA: Keep the RERA authority informed about the builder's non-compliance and seek their guidance on further action.
Remember to document all communication, legal proceedings, and actions taken to support your case. It's crucial to stay persistent and proactive in pursuing your refund with interest from the builder.
