I paid the builder the full amount for my apartment, but they never mentioned any additional charges on the receipts. Now they are demanding interest on the amount, which feels like an unfair ransom. They also added a 3% service tax, which I believe might be unnecessary. Can you please clarify if this is legal? Adding to that, they built three extra flats on the clubhouse, which wasn’t mentioned in the original brochure. They even managed to get approvals from the GDA just two months ago, which feels like a clear case of cheating. Should I file a case in consumer court and is there a way to put a temporary stop to their actions?

You have grounds to file a case in consumer court. You can seek an injunction to stop the builder from adding extra flats and potentially recover the service tax. The builder’s demand for interest without prior mention is unfair and likely unenforceable, especially if it wasn’t outlined in the agreement.
