If the developers fail to complete construction within 2 years as aforesaid then the company shall pay to the allottee a compensation @ Rs. 5 per square feet”. It is alleged by the Complainant that as per this agreement the Opposite Party had to deliver the possession of the shop on 10.10.14 but the Opposite Party failed to do so. The Complainant stated that she visited the office of Opposite Party several times but she did not get any satisfactory response from the Opposite Party. The Complainant also submitted that she lodged her protest at the said office of Opposite Party and requested them to complete the project at the earliest, but the Opposite Party did not give any reply to the Complainant. It is stated by the Complainant that the Opposite Party have till date not got the sanctions/permissions and approvals from the various authorities for water supply, electric connection, water drainage and sewer line fire fighting system and internal lanes/parking etc. As the Complainant was in dire need of the shop from December 2015 onwards she visited the site of the project as well as the office of the Opposite Party on several occasions and requested Opposite Party to hand over the possession of the shop by installing all the amenities in the premises but nothing positive has come out till date. The Complainant stated that there was delay of more than 24 months to the date projected in the allotment letter. The Complainant stated that the Opposite Party assured the Complainant that she would get the shop in question upto October 2014 but even after passing of about 4 years of booking, the Complainant did not get the possession of the shop in question. Hence, this shows deficiency on the part of Opposite Party. The Complainant has prayed for possession of the shop in question and execution of the sale deed of the said shop in her favour. She has also prayed for restraining in the Opposite Party for cancellation of the booking of the shop and for not creating 3rd party interest in respect of the shop in question. She has also prayed for payment of interest to her on the deposited amount from the date of deposit of the said amount. She also claims Rs. 1,00,000/- on account of mental pain and agony and Rs. 50,000/- as litigation expenses.
