The Missing Keys: RERA refund for delayed possession
The Iyers booked a 3-BHK in “Lotus Grove”, a registered project on OMR, Chennai, and have paid ₹62 lakh. Possession was due by 31 December 2024. The builder now says the flat will be ready by June 2026 because of “labour shortage”. They no longer want the flat and want their money back with interest.
Client: Deepak and Meena Iyer (allottees) · As on: 10 Mar 2026
