Delay in Possession – Legal Guidance for Homebuyers

Delay in possession occurs when real estate builders or developers fail to hand over the promised property within the agreed timeline. Such delays often lead to financial strain, emotional stress, and loss of opportunity for homebuyers. Fortunately, the law provides remedies, allowing buyers to claim compensation, interest, or refunds for delayed possession. By taking legal action, homeowners can ensure builder accountability and protect their consumer rights.

Common Types of Delay in Possession Cases

  • Builder Delays – Failure to complete and deliver property within the stipulated timeline.

  • Project Abandonment – Projects stalled indefinitely or left incomplete by the developer.

  • Unreasonable Demands – Builders demanding extra charges before granting possession.

  • Non-Compliance with Agreements – Violations of RERA or contractual obligations.

  • Denial of Refund – Advance payments or booking amounts not returned when possession is delayed.
