In Brief
This case involved a residential project in Punjab where the developer failed to provide promised infrastructure and utilities. Homeowners filed a petition, and the High Court ordered auction of the developers' personal properties without hearing them. The Supreme Court allowed the partners' appeal, holding that they could not be subjected to property attachment without being made parties to the suit or receiving notice. The Court remitted the case to the High Court to determine afresh whether external charges should be borne by allottees or the developer, and to afford both sides a fair opportunity to resolve the dispute and complete the project."
