The builder may refuse to furnish the duplicate allotment letter becausae yo are no one to the builder.

You can put pressure on the seller to procure the same and hand it over to you.

In any case your title is very much safe and secure hence you need not be worried about the allotment letter.

You can get an affidavit and indemnity letter from your seller that the original allotment letter is lost and he will indemnify you against any loss or damages due to this.

• Since the allotment was made pre-RERA (2005), the builder is not bound by RERA obligations.

• If the builder refuses to issue a duplicate allotment letter, you have these remedies:

  1. Serve a legal notice to the builder formally demanding the duplicate copy.

  2. If still non-cooperative, approach the consumer forum (Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission) for deficiency of service.

  3. If you have proof of allotment (like sale deed, registration documents, or payment receipts), the sub-registrar’s office or housing society records may also help you establish title without the duplicate.

When there is a registered sale deed why you need the allotment letter is beyond my comprehension

The sale deed would anyway supersede the allotment letter 

The allotment letter is not even a title document 

- Since, the said property is registered in your name then the builder cannot refuse to issue an allotment duplicate letter 

- However, the earlier seller should issue a letter or lodge a complaint before the police station for the loss of that letter 

- After submitting the same to the builder , you can ask for the allotment letter 

- Further , if he refused then sent a legal notice to the builder. 

You can contact me, if further suggestion needed. 

Since the flat was registered in 2005, your registered sale deed is the main proof of ownership. The builder’s letter is secondary. If the builder is uncooperative, you can:

1. Send a legal notice demanding the duplicate letter.
2. Rely on your sale deed and utility/society records as proof.
3. If needed, file a consumer complaint or civil suit to compel the builder.

Since your apartment was registered in 2005, i.e., prior to the coming into force of RERA (2016), the provisions of RERA may not directly apply to your case. In such situations, if the builder is not cooperating in issuing a duplicate allotment letter, you still have certain remedies available:

1. Written Representation: First, issue a formal written request (by speed post/registered post with acknowledgement) to the builder, clearly stating the need for the duplicate allotment/possession letter. This will serve as evidence of your attempt.

2. Consumer Forum: If the builder refuses or remains uncooperative, you can approach the Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission under the Consumer Protection Act, since non-issuance of necessary documents amounts to deficiency in service.

3. Civil Court: You may also file a civil suit for mandatory injunction directing the builder to issue a duplicate letter, particularly since it concerns your title documents.

4. Society / Association Records: If the property has since come under a Resident Welfare Association (RWA) or cooperative society, check if they have any record of allotment or possession that can support your claim.

5. Sub-Registrar’s Office: Since the apartment is already registered in your name, your sale deed and registration details are legally sufficient proof of ownership. The allotment letter is supportive in nature, not conclusive. You may obtain certified copies of registered documents from the Sub-Registrar to safeguard your title.
