A.Sir, as per the mentioned facts in your case you can file a criminal case against him. But at the same time, we have to consider by what way you had paid the amount to that person. If it is by way of the online transaction then it will definitely have proof of transactions and you get the benefit. It's advised to you engage a lawyer for your case. In the initial stage if you have taken the advice then you won't be suffering like this way

A.Dear client,
As a first step you need to issue him a legal notice through your advocate and thereafter it is advised to approach the court for claiming compensation. You may also approach RERA for your remedies but since he is an unregistered builder, RERA may not be as helpful.
Thank you.

A.It is necessary to scrutinize the terms and conditions of such contract agreement to find out whether the provision of deficiency in service can be attracted or not. Please take note that as a Consumer you are entitled to Consumer complaint if there are certain terms in that contract agreement.
