- As per law, a builder cannot demand full and final payment before handing over the possession.
- Further, as per the agreement entered between you and builder , if there is clause of balance/final payment , then both the parties are bound to comply the clause.
- Since, the falt is not habitable and ready, and you have not taken the possession of the same, hence you are not liable to pay the amount at this stage.
- Once, you will make compelete balance payment to the buidler , then you will have to approach Court , in the event of delay in possession by the builder.
- You should send a written reply for his demand notice in advance.
Finally you are advised :
1.Dont make payment in advance
2. Yes. hold the payment and reply against his demand in written for future purposes.
