Can deregistering building affect common areas and open spaces?
I purchased a 1RK flat in a residential project. The overall project has 5 buildings, each with 12 floors. However, the builder received RERA approval for 3 buildings in 2018, with December 2022 as the completion date. Due to the pandemic, he was able to complete two buildings (C and E). Now, building A has been under construction. The builder started going door-to-door, urging residents to sign a self-declaration form suggesting that residents in buildings C and E have no problem with the builder deregistering building A from the project as per RERA and are aware of the consequences. All this was being done without informing the committee. When asked about the consequences, his men gave evasive answers. The building handover, conveyance deed process is not completed. Can deregistering building A lead to problems in common areas and open space available for us. What questions or information should we ask the builder to share with us before signing this no objection document?
Under Maharashtra RERA regulations, deregistering Building A from the approved project layout could significantly impact your rights to common areas, FSI calculations, and promised amenities since these were originally approved based on the entire project including all buildings. Before signing any no-objection document, you should demand written clarification from the builder regarding how this deregistration will affect your proportionate rights to common areas, amenities, and maintenance costs, and it's advisable to consult a real estate lawyer and file a query with RERA to understand all implications.
Sir, before signing the declaration you should ask the builder about the impact on common areas, future plan for building A and why committee was not informed about this decision. It is advised to consult an expert lawyer who will assist you to understand your rights and obligations. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
