I know sharing copyrighted content is illegal. If it’s alright, I can continue with my website. If not, what are my options? I need advice quickly! Thanks.

A builder promised an 18-floor apartment complex in India. Three months before completion, they suddenly announced a 22-floor building, delaying the project by 18 months. The buyer’s registration costs skyrocketed due to the changes. The agreement included a clause allowing the builder to decrease the undivided land share at their discretion. The delay was blamed on sand shortages, and the builder refused to compensate for the 4 additional floors, offering only 3 rupees per square foot for 9 months of the delay. To accommodate the extra 4 floors, they also reduced amenities like open space, replacing it with car parking for the additional 72 apartments. Can a buyer seek increased compensation in consumer court to cover these additional costs?

Is it legal for builder Galaxy Vega in Greater Noida (West) to offer possession of flats that lack basic amenities and are incomplete? The builder has obtained a partial occupancy certificate for some towers, but the flats lack essential features such as doors, windows, electrical wiring, and basic finishing. Common amenities are also incomplete, with lifts not operational and no water connections. While the builder claims to complete the “final touches” after the apartment’s registration, at least a month’s worth of work appears to be pending. Is this legal, considering the flats are not in a habitable state and crucial amenities are unavailable?

I’m planning to start a small business selling T-shirts in India. I’ll design the shirts myself, but have them printed and manufactured by someone else.

I’m aiming to start printing the T-shirts myself later on, and even set up a small factory for production. Given that my initial annual revenue will be under ₹4 lakh, what should I choose for my business classification?
