Explanation using Example

Example Scenario:

Mr. Sharma has recently booked an apartment in a new residential project by ABC Developers. As per Section 19 of The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016:

• Mr. Sharma is entitled to access the sanctioned plans and specifications of his apartment, which he requests and receives from ABC Developers.
• He is also provided with a stage-wise schedule for the completion of the project, including when amenities like water and electricity will be made available.
• When the project faces unexpected delays, Mr. Sharma uses his right under the Act to claim a refund with interest, as the developer is unable to give possession by the agreed date.
• Upon possession, Mr. Sharma ensures he receives all necessary documents and plans related to his apartment and the common areas.
• He adheres to his responsibilities by paying all required charges on time, including maintenance and registration fees.
• Mr. Sharma actively participates in forming the residents' association and contributes towards the registration of the conveyance deed.
• Finally, he takes physical possession of his apartment within two months of the issuance of the occupancy certificate.
