In Brief
A real estate developer (Supertech Ltd) and a flat purchaser (Rajni Goyal) disputed payment demands and delay in delivering a residential flat in Noida. The flat was scheduled for delivery in October 2013 but remained delayed. The developer issued a demand letter in October 2015 requiring payment of various charges, which the purchaser challenged before the National Consumer Commission. The Court modified the Commission's order: delay compensation should begin 6 months after the original date (accounting for the contractual grace period) and end when the Occupancy Certificate was obtained, not when possession was actually taken by the purchaser.
