Good evening friends!!!! If you are about to get possession of a flat that you had booked years ago, carefully check what you are getting against what you have paid for. If it appears that the building and apartment has all the amenities, size of rooms is as per approval provided, fittings are as per agreement, and other details are in order, go ahead and take possession. But if things don’t match, raise all issues with the developer. And if he is refusing to do such, you can file a case against developer in consumer redressal forum for in deficiency of service.
You are right Ashish, If the amenities are not in proper shape, maintenance cost can go up. The average cost per sq. ft. per month of maintaining a residential housing complex can be in the range of Rs.2-3. Substandard construction and lack of proper amenities affects maintenance charges significantly, as repair and replacement can lead to high and frequent costs.
