15) “The award of interest @15% is not interest in substance, but, it is to compensate the respondents by way of awarding damages for the loss in terms of money as well as the mental agony and other sufferings they underwent. This position is clear from the order passed by the District Forum as well as by the State Commission. The State Commission in its order, dealing with the award of damages by way of interest, has stated thus:
It cannot be disputed that if an allottee is not given possession of the flat, he not only suffers monetary loss, but also suffers mental pain and harassment. the person who is responsible for the delay, is therefore, liable to reimburse him for the loss suffered by him and pay damages for mental pain and agony. The DDA cannot avoid their liability to re-imburse the allotted for delay in delivery of the possession of the flat on the ground that they have paid interest to the allottee in terms of clause 10 of the brochure. The complainant, is therefore, entitled to damages for the period from 1.8.88 till 14.6.89 minus the period of one and a half month. It is not possible to determine the actual damages for at the delivery of the possession of the flat. We think that the complainant will be amply compensated if interest @15% p.a. on the total price of the flat is given to him."
Therefore we are of the opinion that the complainant is entitled to interest @ 15% p.a., instead of compensation of Rs. 2 lakhs.
