Car Parking sizes concern

Dear Client,

As per general building norms and parking regulations, a standard car parking space is usually around 2.5 metres by 5 metres and should be large enough to allow proper parking and opening of car doors. Parking size does not normally depend on the size of the flat, although larger flats may be allotted more parking spaces. Since your Builder Buyer Agreement provides for two car parking spaces, both spaces should be reasonably usable and not merely symbolic. If the allotted parking is too small and difficult to use, and you have not signed the parking acceptance document, you are in a stronger position to object.

You should send a written notice or email to the builder requesting a change of parking slot within a fixed time. If the builder still refuses, you may file a complaint before RERA if the project is registered, or before the Consumer Commission for deficiency in service and unfair trade practice.
