Builder Issue- I have a registered ground floor flat agreement with M/s Mahindra in Happinest Project at Boisar East. During possession, I noticed that at entry door area, a duct* (*where all drain pipes of other buildings at their back side go at termination with main drain flowing under ground). As I perceive, after these pipes go under use by respective owner of flats, leakages happening in future, will get accumulated in the duct and will be health hazards at entry area of my flat, including foul smells. This duct(open duct) has nowhere appeared in the my agreement and drawings in the document. Builder is not ready to cover the duct giving reason that he(builder) has to do for all ground floor flats. I have submitted above to the builder for their action and have NOT taken possession of the flat. Since then 20 days past. No action reported by the builder. Please suggest what shall I do?
