[Resolved]  Ravi Group — Delayed possession and demand of exorbitant amount on pretext of interest & penalty

Address:

Mumbai City, Maharashtra

Please help me get my rights as a consumer, relief from the unfair trade practices & denial of services by this builder (Ravi Group | Ravi Developments).
1. Delayed possession (6+ years now)
2. Registration of my two flats had been with-held by the builder, against their illegal demand of 20, 00, 000/- parking charges for four flats to be made before any registration.
3. Exorbitant charges of approx ~12, 00, 000/- on account of interest & penalty

Below is my 6 years disturbing experience with the Mumbai based builder Ravi Group:
- I've booked 4 flats along-with my family members in a project Gaurav Excellency (Mira Road, Nr GCC Club - Thane) by Ravi Group in Aug-2007. For this I've sold my other properties in separate locations, to bring my life-long dream alive of of being staying together with my joint family members.
- I've made 90% payment on all the flats by Jan-2011 and kept the remaining balance amount as payment on possession.
- Till date the builder had failed to receive the Occupation Certificates due their non-compliance issue with Local Corporation. But I must say he is an expert o[censored]nfair practices, he continues to send reminder notices and levy ever increasing interest amount and penalty on us in tunes of Rs. 12L & undue demand of Rs. 20L for parking charges.
- On all my direct letter communications, he had only send the reminder notice for payments (which I am not liable to pay)
- When I sent a notice through my lawyer, he started up with new a pressure tactics sending letter communication of cancellation of my flats. Continue to extract money on pretext of interest/penalty/parking charges and now threat to cancel the flats.
- I am not alone victim of this builders fraudulent practice for years, I tried to negotiate and discuss to arrive at a win-win situation.
- But I realize this builder has an appetite for all wrong practice. In fact this is a experienced entity, to harass consumers in several ways such that. He utilizes their money without delivering the services and later charges hefty penalty and tries to corner the consumer to cancel their flats. So that we sell the flat at much much higher prices to new clients.
- I have no faith in this builder, hence I seek relief from Consumer Forum. To help me get my rights against the might of an atrocious and heartless business entity with zero corporate ethics.
- I will fight for my rights and that of my family, with a belief that the truth and justice shall prevail.

God bless me with enough strength and health @ this age of 60 years, to take this bully by its horn. To get my flat possessions and live with my family in my dream house happily during the last phase of my life.
