1 Based on hearsay one cannot come to a conclusion.

2. Get the documents perused by an Advocate and based on his opinion proceed further to decide whether to buy the property or not.

3. Regarding the refund of your advance money paid to the builder, the same can be sorted out after perusing the 'Agreement of Sale'.

1) you title to flat is not clear and marketable

2) since builder does not have POA executed by C nor other documents cancel the booking made by you on grounds that bank is refusing to sanction loan in absence of those documents

3) accept deduction of Rs 1 lakh under protest

4) file complaint before consumer forum and seek refund of Rs 1 lakh wrongly deduced by builder

After the Karnataka land Reforms Act, 1961, was amended by

Act 1 of 1974, it was expected that litigations pertaining to the tenancies would be disposed off

early.

However, the Act was again amended by Act No. 19 of 1986, and provision was made for an

appeal to the Land Reform Appellate Authority with two Official members, of whom one was a

Civil Judge from the Judicial Department and another from the Revenue Department not below

the rank of a Deputy Commissioner.

Earlier to the amendment Act No. 19 of 1986, the orders of the Land Tribunals were final and

they could only be questioned before the High Court in it's Writ Jurisdiction.

However, from the past experience, it is found that the desired results were not forthcoming

from the constitution of the Appellate Authorities. The system has also not proved to be beneficial

in the majority of the cases.

Hence, after taking all factors into consideration, the Government decided to abolish the Land

Reforms Appellate Authorities and to make the decision of the Tribunal final.

Originally Under section 11 of the Karnataka Certain Inams Abolition Act, 1977 (Karnataka Act 10 of

1978), application for registration as occupant is required to be made within six months from the

date when the Act is brought into force. The Act was brought into force on 15th June, 1978.

Under section 10 of the Karnataka (Sandur Area) Inams Abolition Act, 1976 (Karnataka Act 54 of

1976) application for registration as occupant is required to be made within six months from the

date on which the Act is brought into force. The Act was brought into force on 8th November,

1976. Subsequently the time was extended upto 1991.

Thus in your case it is pertinent that you need to verify the Inam abolition order as well endorsement with respect to the same.

You can demand the documents from the builder for verifying the same and this demand should be in writing, let him give a reply that he cannot produce the same, you can cancel the booking based on the fact that he failed to produce the necessary documents for scrutiny or verification, hence you are eligible to full refund of the the advance amount paid.

Alternately you may drag him to consumer forum seeking refund of full amount as well as for compensation agaisnt the mental turmoil due to this.
