I bought a 2BHK flat in Kalyan last year and the builder promised me a stilt parking space verbally. He even gave me an allotment letter for it, but the parking wasn’t mentioned in the sale agreement. Now the society has formed and some members who don’t have parking allotments are making trouble. Can they stop me from using my allotted parking spot? Is the allotment letter legally valid?

While the verbal promise and allotment letter might indicate your right to the parking space, they are not legally binding in the absence of it being mentioned in the sale agreement. The society can argue that the parking space belongs to the common area, making your use of it contested. Seeking legal counsel is advised to understand your rights and explore options like amending the sale agreement or reaching a compromise with the society.
