Worst staff and worst builder playing with middle class people’s money. Reply m_vikas February 1, 2013 We had booked a flat in this project “Rising City” a JV between Hubtown, Rajesh Lifespaces, Terraform Realty and Marathon Realty. We booked this flat in Nov’12 by paying a token amount of INR 515450 and were told that the CC would be coming by mid Dec’12. The CC did even come till mid Jan’13. Obviously anxious we asked the sales representatives only to be told that it would definitely be coming in by 26th Jan which was the last day of making the payment for the balance booking amount. We were also told that firstly they would not be depositing the cheques without informing us and secondly that if we chose to withdraw the entire amount would be refunded, provided we did so before they deposited the cheques for the balance amount. We handed over them the cheques for the balance amount on 23rd Jan’13, however when the CC did not come till the 26th we chose to withdraw and informed them accordingly on 28th Jan’13 which was the day they were going to deposit the cheques. They acknowledged the cancellation, but have been completely unethical and unprofessional about the refund. No confirmations of the amount or the timeframe of refund were given to us, several attempts were made either to delay the whole process or prove to us that the refund actually should not be made citing policies that were never agreed by or for that matter even shared with us. However when we did not budge and followed up logically and continuously, they agreed to refund provided we send some mail to them again the content of which was not shared and accordingly the process was delayed. Finally in March’13 they asked us to collect the cheque from their office. However, when we reached we were asked to sign some false and misleading documents as a condition for the refund to which we denied and returned without the refund of our own hard earned money This kind of behavior is completely unacceptable and in fact it is nothing but harassment. We would be taking this up in an appropriate formal forum the definitely take this money back with suitable compensation for what we have been through. Reply soniv August 3, 2012 missed out to mention that i’ve booked a flat in Blue bell, mira road Reply soniv August 3, 2012 Hi Pawan, I too have booked a flat in mira road and the letter of delay in possession was a shock. They have not mentined anything about paying us the interest or rent. In fact they have offered that we can cancel the agreement and they will return the money with interest. This is so frustrating that we are not able to do anything about it. What is required is that we all get united and fight against this. I’ve made some premilinary enquires and the good thing is that we can approach consumer court. As per the rules any builder has to compensate for the delay in possession. The compensation is to pay the buyer 12% interest on the money collected so far from the month date of possession mentioned in the agreement. All of us should stay united and get the bulider to comply to this.

I am a customer of Akruti Builders, and I have booked a flat in Akruti Countrywoods, Pune. The first commitment which I got from them was September’2010, but it is March’2012 now, and still there is no sign of work nearing completion. I have no idea how to hold them to task for not living up to all their previous commitments. I am planning to write to a few national/local news agencies about the quality of service meted out to the customers of Akruti Builders, and request them to investigate the issue, and publish/broadcast some news items in the media. The only thing which the builders fear is their image in public, especially Akruti, because it is a listed company.
