file complaint against builder before consumer forum seek orders to direct builder to deliver possession to you 

 

2) pay you interest for delay in delivery of possession 

 

3) also claim litigation costs and compensation for mental torture undergone by you

Hello, 

 

Interest on what amount was being paid in cash?

If you have the sale deed in your favour then serve upon him a legal notice and if he does not vacate thereafter then file a suit for eviction.

This is my response to you:

1. You can first send him a legal notice;

2. If he does not handover within a specified time period then you will have to take resort to courts;

3. You can always approach police and file an FIR;

4. Consult a local lawyer, discuss full facts and take steps.

Send him a notice first raising a grievance. If not then file a Suit in appropriate Court of law.

Is the project registered under RERA?

 

RERA covers all residential and commercial projects, including shops, offices and buildings. ... Builders / Developers must register such projects under RERA, within three months of implementation of the Act.

Check if the project is RERA approved or not.

If it's a warehouse property then I doubt RERA is maintainable. But as I said you can file Suit for declaration and specific performance.

If the builder has registered with RERA then you may approach RERA for solution or you can approach civil court with a suit for specific performance of contract or consumer court for deficiency in service

Dear client 

If you didn't get possession till date even after 9 years then you are entitled to interest from builder

As you are telling he is not even paying interest now. Then you can proceed against the builder under RERA act.  And file the complaint under section 31 of RERA act against builder for refund of the amount with interest or give the possession of the warehouse to you.
