File an appeal before the RERA Appellate.

It is right that RERA could not have ordered for cancellation of sale deed, but it had the power to order a refund.

Consult a local lawyer with the RERA order and more details on this case.

Dear Client,

As rightly observed by RERA, registered sale deed cannot be cancelled except by court order.

IS this sale deed without possession ? And how can sale deed got registered without possession.

Or it`s agreement to sell ?

Better approach consumer court for refund and compensation.

This is my response to you:

1. If RERA has not helped you then apply before the consumer court;

2. Cite the reasons for RERA refusing to give you full refund;

3. Also file a police complaint against the builder for cheating;

4. Once you apply before consumer court then also claim compensation;

5. Take legal steps immediately otherwise the builder can get away with the crime.

Hi, you can ask for refund in RERA if the posession is delayed ... The order is biased and not as per the provisons of RERA ... It is advisable to file a appeal in the appellate authority for seeking relief

See for delay you can seek comparation through RERA and consumer court.

Further for cancellation.of the sale deed you need to file a civil suit stating that builder did fraud and is delaying so you want to cancel the sale deed and pray for refund of the total amount.

You can issue a legal notice to the buildr informing him about your decision to cancel the booking owing to the inordinate delay and for not honoring the commitment made in the sale agreement or for breach of contract conditions.

After that you can drag him to the consumer forum for relief and remedy.
