MOFA Section 2(1)(e) | Landowner Deemed Promoter for Enabling Development, Granting FSI & Facilitating Sales Without Cash or Formal Agreement : Bombay HC

The Bombay High Court has ruled that a landowner who enables housing development, transfers FSI rights, and facilitates flat sales - even without a formal development agreement or direct cash payment - qualifies as a 'promoter' under MOFA. This triggers mandatory conveyance obligations to housing societies, reshaping how landowners structure joint development arrangements across Maharashtra.
