3. Sale agreement can be cancelled unilaterally if there is breach of terms of the agreement.
1. Was there any clause stipulating that the said agreement will be treated as cancelled if any term or condition mentioned therein is not complied by either parties?
2. If yes, send him a letter cancelling the said agreement on the stated ground,
3. Unless there is a forfeiture clause in the agreement, return the advance amount received by you.
The remedy is two fold- you may either file a lawsuit against him to seek specific directions from the court to him to pay the balance amount and honour the agreement. Alternatively, you may forfeit the earnest money paid by him after cancelling the agreement.
