RERA – Buyers

At Expert Jurist LLP, we are dedicated to safeguarding the rights and interests of homebuyers and property investors under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 (RERA). We offer comprehensive legal services to assist buyers in ensuring that developers adhere to their contractual obligations and legal requirements. Our expert team specializes in providing strategic solutions that address your concerns effectively and efficiently.

​

1. Drafting & Sending Legal Notices/Replies

 

When developers fail to meet their obligations, sending a well-drafted legal notice is the first step in asserting your rights. At Expert Jurist LLP, we offer:

• Drafting Legal Notices: We meticulously draft legal notices to developers who have violated the terms of the agreement, such as delays in possession, alteration of project plans, or failure to provide amenities as promised.

• Responding to Notices: If you have received a legal notice from a developer or any other party, we provide expert legal responses that protect your rights and address the concerns raised.

• Follow-Up Action: If the legal notice does not result in a satisfactory outcome, we guide you on the appropriate legal steps to take next, including RERA complaints and litigation.

 

We ensure that your communications are legally sound, strategically positioned, and compliant with RERA provisions to maximize their impact.

 

2. Liaising with Developers for Settlements

In many cases, buyers and developers can reach amicable settlements without the need for prolonged legal proceedings. Expert Jurist LLP offers expert assistance in:

• Negotiating Settlements: We liaise directly with developers on your behalf to negotiate settlements that can lead to timely possession, financial compensation for delays, or other remedies.

• Settlement Agreements: Once an agreement is reached, we ensure that all settlements are formally documented, legally binding, and in your best interests.

• Alternative Dispute Resolution: We explore alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, such as mediation and arbitration, to resolve matters quickly and efficiently.

Our goal is to help you achieve a fair settlement without the stress and expense of going to court.

 

3. RERA Complaints for Delay in Possession

If you are facing inordinate delays in getting possession of your property, you have the right to file a complaint under RERA. Our team assists buyers in:

• Filing Complaints: We prepare and file complaints with RERA authorities, clearly outlining the violations committed by the developer, such as delays in possession, failure to meet project timelines, or not providing necessary approvals.

• Claiming Compensation: We help you claim compensation for the financial and emotional distress caused by the delays, including recovery of interest on payments made or refund of amounts paid if possession is unreasonably delayed.

• Representation before RERA Authorities: We represent you in hearings before RERA authorities, ensuring that your case is presented effectively and that you receive justice in a timely manner.

 

Our expertise in RERA laws ensures that your complaint is handled efficiently, giving you the best possible chance of success.

 

4. RERA Complaints for Cancellation & Refunds

If you are looking to cancel your booking due to delays, non-compliance, or changes in project specifications, Expert Jurist LLP can assist you in:

• Filing Cancellation Complaints: We help buyers who wish to cancel their property bookings due to developers’ failure to fulfill their obligations. This may include delays in project completion, alteration of project plans, or any other breach of contract.

• Securing Refunds: We work diligently to ensure that you receive a full refund of your booking amount along with applicable interest as mandated under RERA, where the delay or non-compliance is on the part of the developer.

• Legal Representation: We represent you before RERA authorities in any dispute arising from cancellation or refund claims, ensuring that your case is effectively argued and settled in your favor.

 

By leveraging our legal expertise, you can secure a timely and fair resolution to your refund or cancellation disputes.

 

5. Filing Non-Compliance Complaints with RERA Authorities

Developers are required to comply with a wide array of regulations under RERA, including providing regular updates on project progress, adhering to project timelines, and fulfilling their contractual obligations. Expert Jurist LLP offers assistance with:

• Non-Compliance Complaints: If the developer is not complying with RERA provisions—such as failure to update project status on the RERA website, changes in project plans without consent, or not adhering to the promised completion schedule—we help you file non-compliance complaints.

• Enforcement of Orders: Once a favorable order is passed by RERA authorities, we ensure its enforcement, including taking action against developers who fail to comply with RERA orders, such as compensation or project handover.

• Escalating Complaints: In cases where developers continue to flout RERA regulations or orders, we escalate the matter through legal channels, ensuring that your rights are enforced.

 

We guide you through the entire complaint process, ensuring that developers are held accountable for any violations of RERA regulations.
