I bought a 1BHK flat in Nashik in December 2011, paying the full price upfront. However, the builder hasn’t registered the society or provided sale deeds for all residents. Despite repeated requests over the past five years, I’ve been ignored. In August 2016, I filed a case against the builder in the Nashik consumer court.

Under Indian law, a builder’s failure to register the society and provide sale deeds within a reasonable time constitutes a deficiency in service. Filing a case with the Nashik consumer court is a valid step to seek redress. The court can order the builder to register the society, issue sale deeds, and potentially compensate you for the delay and inconvenience.
