In contrary to the terms of agreement the 4th opposite party released 45% of the home loan to the developer company even before start of construction. The 4th opposite party would have remitted into escrow account ought to be maintain by the developer company in this regard. As a result the developer company resorted to diversion of home loan by defeating the very purpose of the home loan scheme thereby made suffer the complainant.
5. It is pertinent to mention that the loan disbursement shall be co-related with the progress of the construction and in accordance with the provisions of Section 4 & 5 of the AP Apartment (Promotion of Construction and Ownership Act & Rules, 1987). Whereas the 4th opposite party violated the same and committed unfair practice.
6. It is submitted that the home loan banker being a legal body under law ought to follow the provisions of statues such as The Andhra Pradesh Promotion of Apartments and Ownership Act, 1987 besides other guidelines issued by its superior/regulatory authorities such as RBI & NHB while releasing the home loan but failed to do so thereby the developer company diverted the home loan including the margin money paid by the complainant. Thereby, 1st to 3rd opposite parties in collusion with the 4th opposite party committed not only deficiency of service but also unfair trade practice and caused loss besides physical suffering and mental agony to the complainant.
7. It is submitted that we were compelled to pay EMI’s into home loan besides interest thereon as charged by the 4th opposite party, otherwise the 4th opposite party cautioned about the reference of default to the credit agency (CBIL). It is submitted that there has been no response over phone and mails from the opposite parties 1 to 3 in respect of progress of construction of flat under sale. Even though the complainants are ready to pay the balance of installments in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement of Sale and progress of the construction, the opposite parties No.1 to 3 have not provided the details of the progress of the construction of the Flat under sale as on date.
8. We submit that the opposite parties started Aliens Space Station-1 project in the year 2007/08 and in the span of 7 to 8 years not even 1 station (out of 13) is 100% complete, leave alone the amenities, car park, Lakes and other infrastructure promised. It is not only deficiency of service and commitment; it is intentional case of cheating and deceiving innocent buyers who have invested sizable portion of their life savings with a dream to own a house. On noticing about the snail space of construction at project site the complaints prevailed up on the opposite parties 1 to 3 but they deaf eared and gave evasive replies. It is pertinent to mention that the developer company has to complete the construction of the flat by December, 2012 in terms of agreement sale dt.04.07.2009 and 05.06.2009 respectively under clause VIII (Delivery of Possession), under any circumstances. On the recent visit to the project, the complainant noticed that only basement work is completed, but the complainant’s Flat is at 6th Floor of the complex.
9. On noticing about the snail pace of works at the project we prevailed upon the opposite parties but could not get proper response. It is pertinent to mention that the opposite parties 1 to 3 have to complete the construction of the flat by December, 2012 in terms of Agreement of Sale dt.04.07.2009 and 05.06.2009 under clause VIII (Delivery of Possession), under any circumstances. Thereby the opposite parties committed deficiency of service in not constructing the flat under sale in terms of Agreement of sale dt.04.07.2009 and 05.06.2009. Moreover the 4th opposite party is having charge over the flat soon after sanction and disbursement of the home loan. As such the home loan banker ought to exercise its charge for recovery of home loan from the opposite parties 1 to 3 but did not do so. As such complainant got issued legal notice on the opposite parties on the available address but there has been no response.
10. In view of cheating, mischief, fraud committed by the opposite parties No.1 to 3 the complainant lost the opportunity to have a residential accommodation in the year 2012 on the then prevailing costs. Besides the complainant paying interest into the home loan amount paid to the opposite parties No.1 to 3.

11. The 1st to 3rd opposite parties continuously made false promises in collusion with the 4th opposite party and not completed the project with fraud intention to cheat the complainant. In view of deficiency of service and unfair trade practice committed by the 1st to 3rd opposite parties in collusion with the 4th opposite party, and having no scope of completion of construction in the near future by the opposite parties 1 to 3, the complainant demanding the refund of the sale consideration of Rs.18,51,713/- and Rs.15,87,500/-, which includes home loan, with 24% interest per annum for the period from the respective dates of payments and subsequent interest till the refund of the same from the opposite parties.

As such the opposite parties are liable to pay fair rental value @ Rs.10/- per sq. ft., per month for the delayed period w.e.f.
