Dlf — Dlf... A big cheat!

1. On 27.08.2008, over 8 years ago, i made the mistake of booking and investing my hard-earned savings in an unapproved project dlf express greens, manesar, gurgaon by dlf home developers... Flat no. M1e103/pe1019#154 in express greens, sector-m1 sector-1, manesar, gurgaon through dlf home developers.

2. Soon i got to know that dlf was financially in dire straits and was going to abandon the project. I applied for cancellation but kept paying till they approved my cancellation request. My nightmare came true when the national dailies highlighted the failure of the project... Newspaper clipping (Annex.)

3. For cancellation i applied to dlf on 27th oct'2008 requesting refund without interest; personally met deepak kapoor, g. M. Customer relations of dlf twice in oct' and dec'2008 requesting him to accede to my request; and again 4th time mailed him a request on 7.1.2009. However my requests were rejected vide dlf's letter dated 14.1.2009 (Annex...). Dlf claims it gave an option of exit with refund of all money (Without interest) as admitted by them in their revision petition no. 110 of 2015... Point no. 8 page 88 (Annex.) but i was never allowed to avail this exit option despite all my 4 requests being well within their stipulated period of 6 months (As set by dlf) from my date of booking the flat i. E. On 27th aug' 2008.in fact because of the above reasons within 6 months of booking i had already gone to the consumer distt. Forum for relief.

4. Despite, my request for cancellation and my going to the court, dlf kept insisting for 3 years from 2008 till 2011 that i sign on the buyer-seller agreement (Annex.), but i never signed the buyer-seller agreement as the case was already sub-judice. They refused to give me back my principal amount of rs.14, 37, 494.55/-.

5. Dlf lost the case in the distt consumer court as well as at the state commission against me... Now it is pending with the national commission (Ncdrc). Dlf was penalised rupees 1 lakh + ordered to pay me all my money with 6% interest. Please see distt. And state commission orders (Annex.) and newspaper clipping (Annex...)

6. Dlf's terms were extremely unfair and monstrous... If i default/delay, i pay 18% interest to dlf... But if dlf defaults they pay me only 6%. (Annex.). I wish, in all fairness the consumer courts had asked them to pay 18%... A taste of their own medicine... For all their delay and unnecessary litigation/harassment.

7. This project was started in 2008 and possession was to be given in 2011. The present status of this project is worth seeing... It is doomed!... A result of dlf's own greed, unfairness and machinations. I went to see express greens, manesar on 20th sept' 2016... I. E. 8 years after its launch and 5 years after it was supposed to be given for possession. Not a single soul lives there. There's a stay by the supreme court as of now. All the 700 investors are suffering. The buildings are in a haunted, semi-constructed and dilapidated condition. Recent photos taken on 20.9.16 attached (Annex.).in retrospect my decision to withdraw was wise.

8. I am a 62 year old senior citizen and have suffered cancer in 2005 and its treatment at indian rotary cancer hospital (Annexure 1 & 2). This fact was brought to the notice of dlf in 2008 when i had applied for cancellation.

9. I am absolutely tired and broke paying lakhs of rupees to lawyers on litigation, fighting for 8 years against the money/muscle power, arrogance and battery of lawyers of dlf. It doesn't seems i would see my money in my lifetime and the consumer courts, with their endless delays and procedure, will grant my money by default to dlf. I can't expect my family to fight for it... After me.
