A. Dear Client,

Once a buyer takes possession of a flat following registration, they typically become liable for the payment of monthly maintenance charges to the society or association, irrespective of whether the flat is actively used by the owner or not. These maintenance charges contribute to the upkeep, maintenance, and common facilities of the entire housing complex or society.

The obligation to pay maintenance charges is commonly outlined in the terms and conditions of the society or asso ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

In the current scenario, consider filing a petition under Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code (Cr. P.C.) in the High Court to quash proceedings initiated by the Executive Magistrate/SDM under Section 107 of the Cr. PC, citing the grounds of falseness and vagueness. If the High Court quashes the proceedings as false and fabricated, you can subsequently file a complaint case before a magistrate or lodge an FIR with the police under Sections 182 and 211 of the Indian Penal Cod ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

If the initial transaction lacks a registered document, acquiring a sale deed in your name is necessary. To formalize this, seek signatures of the presumed previous owner as consenting witnesses on your sale deed. This process helps establish legal ownership and ensures the transaction is properly documented and registered.

A. Dear Client,

In cases of contract breaches, the terms of the contract guide the court on handling the advance deposit. If specified, the deposit will likely be refunded if the seller or builder fails to comply. Investing in a RERA-approved project provides buyers with secured rights, ensuring legal compliance and possession timelines. If a buyer's loan application is rejected, they can claim the advance payment as a booking amount. Government regulations on house cancellation or refund are abs ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
Purchasing a property involves considering various legal aspects, and in this scenario, the situation appears complex. The fact that the layout is not registered or approved by local authorities raises concerns about its adherence to legal norms. Additionally, if the property cannot be registered due to Form 11B status mentioned in the E-Swathu portal and the division of a single survey number into multiple plots in a panchayat, it adds further complications.
It is highly recommende ...ReadMore
