The agreement timeline matters

Possession obligations are closely connected to the terms and date stated in the agreement for sale and the applicable legal framework.

RERA provides remedies

MahaRERA material and appellate decisions discuss remedies that can include interest for delay and, in qualifying circumstances, refund-related relief. The correct remedy depends on the facts and legal position.

Document the timeline

Keep the agreement, payment records, correspondence, possession communications and relevant official project information organised.

Seek case-specific advice

Delay disputes are legal matters. General educational content cannot determine entitlement in an individual case.
