Can Promoters be excused from delay in possession for factors beyond their control?
Generally, the possession of flat, office… to the Buyer can’t be delayed. But there have been various instances where despite the Promoter’s best efforts, there is a delay in the possession - this is termed as ‘factors beyond the control of Promoter’.
There can be various such factors - unavailability of raw materials, delay in sanctioning of plans by various authorities, change in planning authority, delayed/no payment by the buyer etc. Delay in sanctioning of plan with default from Promoter, etc where Promoters’ defaults reflect will not be permitted under such factors.
No demand notice to the Promoter for compensation by the Buyer, in case the Buyer intends to continue in the project for monthly compensations, is necessary and filing a complaint is construed to be a demand.
So what can the Buyer do? Ask for the time schedule of project completion & the date in the agreement and periodically check progress.
