Builder in Bangalore is fined for delay in construction
The Bangalore Urban District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum has ordered the SJR builder to pay compensation to a petitioner for not handing over an apartment in Bangalore on time.
The complainant had booked an apartment at SJR Luxuria with SJR Enterprises situated in Arakere, Bangalore. As on April 26, 2011, the petitioner had paid Rs 69.02 lakh and Rs 4.22 lakh for the civic utilities.
Though the agreement with the builder said, they would hand over the apartment by September 2010, with a grace period of three months, it had not been handed over till September 2011.
The builders contended that the delay in handing over the apartment was because the complainant delayed payment by one month.
According to the consumer forum, there was deficiency in service by the builders, hence ordered the builder to pay Rs 8,480 per month from January 2011 until he delivers the possession of the apartment.
