It is the positive case of the complainant that he entered into two agreements for sale with the vendor/land owner ,who developed his own bastu land , on 4th May, 2011 for purchase of 2 flats at ground floor and 2nd floor situated at Kamrabad, P.O & P.S Sonarpur, Ward no.9, under Rajpur Sonarpur Municipality, Kolkata – 150 and paid Rs.16,00,000/- out of total consideration money of Rs.18,40,000/- . Complainant several times requested the O.P to execute and register the deed of conveyance ,accepting the balance amount and to hand over possession of the same but the O.P failed and neglected to execute and register the same. Repeated requests followed by lawyer’s notice also yielded no result and hence the case. Complainant also prayed for not to transfer the said two flats to another person or persons.
Inspite of good service of notice, the O.P fought shy of contesting the case and accordingly the case proceeded exparte .
Points for decision in this case is whether there is any deficiency in service on the part of the O.P and /or unfair trade practice adopted by the O.P or not.
Decision with reasons
We find that complainant already entered into an agreement, wherein owner agreed to sell and transfer the said flat in favour of the purchaser in respect of a flat measuring super built up area 1100 sq.ft more or less of the second floor including super built up area of 12% @ 1200 /- per sq.ft along with undivided share of the said land after receiving the total consideration money of Rs13,20,000/- and the owner further agreed to sale and transfer 400 sq.ft in its entity along with shop garage and one bath room in favour of the purchaser/complainant @ 1300/- per sq.ft at a consideration of Rs.5,20,000/- thereby total consideration money is Rs.18,40,000/-. It is the further case of the complainant that 2 agreements for sale was executed between the Vendor/O.P and the complainant on 4th May, 2011 for the purpose of purchase of flat at ground floor and second floor situated at Kamrabad, P.O & P.S Sonarpur, Ward no.9, under Rajpur Sonarpur Municipality, Kolkata – 150 and Rs.16 lacs was paid out total consideration money of Rs.18,40,000/-. But inspite of several requests the Vendor/owner did not execute and register the deed of conveyance ,accepting the balance consideration money of Rs.2,40,000/-.
On perusal of the entire documents submitted by the complainant we find that the O.P acted unfair trade practice and deficiency of service but not executing and register the deed of conveyance ,accepting the balance amount of consideration money of Rs.2,40,000/-.
Hence,
Ordered
