I booked a flat in the Nestwood Mapal project through Century 21 realty, their authorized marketing partner. I paid 20% of the total cost, ₹3.6 lakhs, in four cheques. While I have a receipt for ₹3 lakhs paid to the developers, the remaining ₹0.6 lakhs paid to an investor is unrecorded. The project hasn’t begun yet. Now, I want to get my money back, but the marketing company isn’t responding. What steps should I take to get my refund?

You should issue a legal notice to Century 21 demanding the refund of ₹0.6 lakhs. If they fail to respond, you can file a consumer complaint against them and the builder under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. You should also consider filing a police complaint if you suspect fraud.

We won a case at the state consumer forum regarding a housing issue. The other party has 30 days to comply with the order. We’re worried they might appeal to the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC). What can we do proactively? Is filing a caveat a good idea? Also, if they appeal, can we ask for more compensation? Or will the NCDRC only reduce or nullify the penalty, or even impose a higher penalty on the other party?
