Adajan, Surat · Under-construction flat
Residential & Apartment Title
Carpet area 9% below allotment letter
Background
A buyer booked an under-construction flat in Adajan based on a brochure quoting super built-up area.
Problem identified
On measurement, the delivered carpet area was 9% below the RERA-registered allotment letter.
Investigation
Our engineer measured each room with a laser distance meter and compared against the RERA carpet area.
Resolution
Under RERA Section 14, a shortfall above 3% entitles the buyer to a proportionate refund. The developer refunded ₹ 5.2 lakh.
Lessons learned
Measure carpet area yourself; RERA protects you against short delivery above 3%.
They measured the flat and got us a refund we did not even know we were owed.
