M/s DLF Universal Limited & Anr.” and connected matters, which relate to the same project.  They have prayed that similar order be passed in the present case.

Complainant, however, now requests that the Opposite Party be directed to give the possession of the subject plot to him and prays that similar directions as issued in Vineet Kumar’s case, which had been confirmed by Hon’ble Supreme Court in the matter of “Bhupinder Singh & Anr. Vs. DLF Universal Limited & Anr., Special Leave to Appeal (C) No.11505 of 2019”, be passed.  The learned Counsel for the Opposite Party has not disputed that the case is a covered case.
Accordingly, following directions are issued:
(i) The Opposite Party is hereby directed to deliver the possession of the subject plot to the Complainant within one month from today along with compensation in the form of simple interest @ 8% p.a. w.e.f. the committed date of possession till the date on which possession was actually offered to the allotee, i.e. 19.11.2014;
(ii) The Opposite Party shall also pay a sum of ₹25,000/- to the Complainant as cost of litigation, if any;
(iii) Balance amount, if any, due from the Complainant shall be adjusted out of the deposit payable to him in terms of this order;
(iv) No interest for delayed payment on such an amount shall be payable by the allottee after the date on which the possession was offered.  This is so since                     no compensation to the allottee has been awarded for the period subsequent to the offer of possession.

The compensation, if any, which has already been paid/credited in the final statement of account of the Complainant shall be adjusted.  It is also agreed by the Opposite Party and that
