Builder's Material Reduction of Promised Amenities = Deficiency in Service | NCDRC Allows Refund with 18% Interest : NCDRC
The NCDRC ruled that a builder's unilateral reduction of promised open spaces-like lawn area-constitutes deficiency in service under the Consumer Protection Act, entitling buyers to full refund with penal interest and compensation. This sets a critical precedent for homebuyers challenging amenity misrepresentation in builder-buyer agreements, reinforcing that contractual promises are legally enforceable, not marketing embellishments.
