I recently bought a flat in Chennai from a well-known builder. The agreement mentions two covered car parking spaces, which I paid for separately. However, after taking possession, I found an open space above the parking area with windows along the wall. This poses a risk of objects falling. The builder refuses to cover this opening. Our agreement states that disputes should be settled through the Arbitration and Conciliation Act of 1968. What legal options do I have?

You can initiate arbitration proceedings under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act of 1968, citing the builder’s failure to provide the promised covered car parking spaces. The arbitrator can direct the builder to rectify the situation, including covering the open space above the parking area to ensure safety. You can also explore options like seeking injunctions from the court to prevent further construction or use of the open space.
