Respected Sir or Ma'am

Sub: Adopting not ethical methods in the process.

I, Rudrani Chowdhury am an executive working for M/s Tata Projects Limited. I joined the company in July 2018.

In my eagerness to acquire an affordable property around Kolkata I had applied for the Spriha class of housing in your acclaimed project under BSHDPL.

In my declaration for the application, I had mentioned about my IT return for the financial year 2018-19, because I have been employes only from JULY 2018 though it was mentioned that allotment was to be determined on the basis of annual income for the financial year 2017-18.

I do not stand to be selected for allotment of Application No: 120456 -- Apartment no. H/106/0405(Spriha) at Sukhobrishti, Phase 9 vide your letter Ref No. P9/120456/IFD dated 08.06.2019. I was astonished to see that i have been selected.

Accordingly, I submitted the necessary documents as per the GTC applicable. My eligibility in the draw of lots had convinced me that my IT return for 2018-19 was accepted as my basis of income.

However, subsequently, I received calls from Shukhobrishti office (Mr. Palash Mitra) asking me to furnish my IT return for the financial year 2017-18. I had filed my IT returns for the financial year 2017-18 declaring therein the meager sum of INR 3000 per month that I used to receive from my family to sustain during[protected] post graduation course and also because I had started to file TAX returns for availing the IT return for the 6 months internship that i had done from Dec 2015-May 2016.

I promptly sent the scanned signed copy of my 2017-18 IT returns. Following this, I once again received call from Shukhobrishti office(or from Mr Palash Mitra) to send my IT return for 2017-18 asking me to declare that I was a self employed person filing income tax knowing that I was not. That scanned copy of my signed declaration was also sent to you through email though it was never confirmed or acknowledged. Thus this made me realize that it was not accepted and I was not eligible, as this is not by ethical means.

As i was worried, I re read the GTC (Provisional), Point no. 9 attracted my attention which specifically states that if at any stage it is found that the applicant had applied although he/she was not eligible, the allotment shall be cancelled summarily.

I am apprehensive that my eligibility for draw of lots and subsequent allotment of apartment on the basis of IT returns for 2018-19 might always remain as a sticking point in the future.

I have just begun to step in my career and I believe I need not indulge in any impropriety-however subtle it might be, at any stage of my professional life.

I request you to consider my case sympathetically and consider me as ineligible for the draw of lots on the basis of IT returns furnished for 2018-19 and refund my application money accordingly.

Will be awaiting your response.

My 5 mails to kolkata.[protected]@shapoorji.com have remained unresponded to and two mails to [protected]@shapoorji.com have been sent back as the mail ID doesn't exist.

I am hopeful that my mail to WEST BENGAL HOUSING INDUSTRY REGULATORY AUTHORITY will be acknowledged and looked into.

Kindly do contact [protected] or [protected] as alternate numbers if [protected] is not available.

Thanking you,

With best regards,
