QUORUM: THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE D.APPA RAO, PRESIDENT,

TUESDAY, THE TWENTY FIFTH DAY OF SEPTEMBER,
TWO THOUSAND TWELVE
Oral Order (Per Hon’ble Sri Justice D.Appa Rao, President)
***
i) Whether the complainant is entitled for refund of the amount?
ii) Whether the complainant is entitled to compensation, if so, to what amount?
It is an undisputed fact that in the venture floated by the opposite party for sale of house plots vide Ex.A6, the complainant applied for a house plot vide Ex.A7 application.
The complainant addressed a letter on 06-2-2009 stating that he intended to cancel the allotment. Despite the fact, curiously, the opposite party addressed a letter, Ex.B4 dated 22-3-2009 stating that it was ready to execute registered sale deed.
15. If any member seeks to cancel his passbook, he will not be allowed during the
16. Regulations related to Cancellation/Transfer of passbook:
When the complainant sought for cancellation, the company obviously cannot insist that it would not cancel. It cannot insist for execution of sale deed. show that there were no improvement or development whatsoever.
No doubt one of the stipulation is that the opposite party company was entitled to deduct 25% of the amount towards admn. Expenses and membership fee etc. Since the sale of plots for purpose of house construction a housing activity comes under the definition of Consumer Protection Act, 1986 as there is service involved in it as per Section 2.1(o), the complaint is maintainable.
The opposite party did not choose to refund the amount but insisted for registration by its letter Ex.B4 dated 22-3-2009.
