I bought a two-bedroom flat in a Pune suburb (Undri- Pisoli) in August 2012, with a promised completion by December 2013. Since I planned to resell the flat after completion, I didn’t register it. I’ve made almost 90% of the payments, but the builder hasn’t finished some work like installing a lift and the sewage treatment plant. Some families started moving in from November 2015. Now, due to personal reasons, I want to register the flat and get the agreement. When I asked the builder for the required documents and registration charges, he refused until I pay the remaining balance. Is he right to do this? What should I do? Please advise.

The builder’s refusal to provide documents and registration charges is incorrect. Under the Indian Registration Act, you have the right to register your flat even without full payment. You should issue a legal notice demanding the documents and initiate legal action if necessary. Seek legal counsel for further assistance.

Previous Article Namaste! I’m facing a bit of a dilemma. My father’s name is “Keshav Prasad Gupta” on his official documents, but in my 10th and 12th marksheets it’s simply “Keshav Prasad”. My PAN, Aadhaar, and graduation certificates have his full name. I recently submitted an application for a government job using the name from my 10th marksheet. Will this cause any issues during document verification? If so, what should I do? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
