Builder cannot deliver possession of flat until occupation certificate is issued
2) however it is in your interest to have registered sake deed in your favour
I bought flat from a builder in Bangalore in pre-EMI scheme i.e. builder to pay EMI till possesion of the flat. Builder in agreement said, they will pay pre-EMI till they issue "Notice of Possession " letter. They sent me Notice of Possession mail ( Not a formal letter) few days back, but they doesn't have OC, I cannot register the flat yet. Is it legal for builder to say apartment is ready for possession without OC.

Sir, Is Notice of Possession is different from Possession. Builder is saying, its Notice of Possession not actual possession, eventhough it doesn't make sense.
- Builder who has given possession to buyers without OC , is in breach , because no possession can be given without OC.
- The certificate of Occupancy in Banglore is one of the most crucial documents for a home buyer.
- Further, If the builder sends a possession letter without OC, the buyer should resist such possession and refuse to pay the principal or the so-called interest claimed.
- The Notice of Possession /Possession Letter is issued by the Builder in favour of the buyer stating the date of possession of the property.
- But , a notice of possession /possession letter alone would not suffice for legal possession of the Property , unless OC has been obtained.
You bought a flat under the subvension scheme. OC is necessary. Demand a formal letter and inspect the flat.

He is trying to dupe you by giving you notice of possession although the flat may not be completed as yet. He should first give an CC certificate ie completion certificate.

Yes, the builder may have to specify that the possession is without OC if he did not procure the same.
In fact you should not take possession without OC.
What is the difference he is trying to explain by stating these two different technical terms.
What is the use of issuing a notice of possession when he is not ready to handover p[physical possession?
You can deny possession without OC if there is delay on part of the builder then you can file.a complaint under RERA against the builder.
See notice of possession is to inform possession date builder cannot offer possession without the OC.
No it's not legal even you can refuse the possession for lack of OC. No, notice of possession is before possession but actual possession is on date of possession
Ask builder to furnish copy of OC obtained from municipal corporation
inform him that builder can offer possession only after receipt of OC
no notice for possession can be given prior to OC
You can write to builder that this letter of possession is nothing to do with actual possession and the OC.
And tell him not to run out from paying pre emi as mentioned in the agreement to sell.
Kindly act straight forward as what written in the agreement to sell. Otherwise you can make complaint against builder in the RERA.
You're eligible to get you amount back along with Interest if the project is delay as per written in the agreement.
Builder can offer you possession only when the OC is in place
He cannot offer you possession before the OC is received and thereby get rid of his liability of paying EMi till possession
Possession always means legal possession
Offering possession without a valid OC is no possession at all
1. Typically an "Occupation Certificate (OC)" is granted by the Revenue /Municipal authorities, "ONLY" IF the building structure is legal in all respects and complied with the sanctioned plans. ELSE it would be illegal and legally not eligible for possession (in any manner whatsoever). In Mumbai, there is a continuing penalty of 25000/- on the occupant, under the BMC laws, for occupying property without an OC.
2. Issue proper legal notice to Builder, to provide you the OC copy, consequent to which you would take legal possession and till then builder remains liable for the EMI /whatever ....
OC is must which is given by the local planning authority

2. Notice of possession can not be legally issued by the builder till the flats are ready for giving possession for which OC is required to be obtained by the builder.
If the builder refuses to give you the OC, then you must not take possession. oc is must without oc your possession is not legal.
