We purchased a new apartment in Hyderabad and paid more than 90% of the price. The owner/builder transfered the registration to us, how ever the property registration office sent the originals to the owner (not sure if that is the norm) .
So the problem is since there is some unfinished work with the Apartment, we agreed to hold the 10% balance until finished. now the owner is not completing the work and also not giving us the papers (originals)
question is, since the property is officially registered on our names, can we just get the duplicate registration papers and move on with completing the work our selves ? Is having duplicate same as having the originals ? Can the owner/builder has any rights on this property now that it is legally transferred?
any suggestions ?
