Builders worried as Supreme Court stays Noida Extension projects
Flat owners and builders are left worried following the Supreme Court's order on Thursday granting a stay on the construction of housing units over 20 acres of land in Noida Extension's Bisrakh village.

The court's order came on combined petitions of 10 farmers who did not allow builders to start construction work on their land.

Gayatri, Stellar, Paramount, Devika Gold and Express are among the builders affected by the court order. These builders were planning to construct around 15,000 housing units on the disputed land. They had already started booking of these units.

The fate of 50,000 buyers is now uncertain in Bisrakh village, where the biggest amount of land (40 per cent) is at stake.

Adding to the woes is the fact that petitions of around 60 farmers of Bisrakh village, who have not accepted compensation, seeking quashing the land acquisition, are scheduled to be heard in the apex court.
If the court delivers a similar order as Thursday's, a large section of home-buyers would be affected as 15 real estate players are constructing housing units on the acquired land.

Bisrakh farmers, who have refused 64 per cent increased compensation from Greater Noida Authority, have accused the authority of acquiring their land "unfairly" by using the urgency clause of the Land Acquisition Act. They allege that the land use was changed to suit private builders.

In 2008 , the Greater Noida Authority had acquired 608 acres of land from farmers of Bisrakh village in which builders planned to construct about 50,000 houses.

















Today NEFOMA had meeting with a large number of buyers of Greater Noida West, who were requestion NEFOMA to tag them in writ pretition filed by NEFOMA. As all know NEFOMA has filed writ pretition in Allahbad High Court against the buyers who are doing cancellation on verious grounds. Today many of buyers has registered with NEFOMA for tagging themself in writ pretition against builders.
 
Buyers who were present there were from the projects of builders which are already added in wrip prition and now NEFOMA will tag remaining builders in writ pretition. Some of them are Ajnara Homes, Rudra, Gulshan I Homes. Buyers strength shows that there is big issue in this Greater Noida West Area.
 
Buyers booked their flats at a time when there was no land acquisition controversy (and if, it was there, no body i.e.Greater Noida Authority, Builder, Agents informed to the Buyers). They paid the booking amount of their flats as per the rates fixed by the builders themselves when they started their projects which was escalation free as per the Builder Buyer agreement. During the Land Acquisition controversy buyers were concerned about their respective
flats/projects. However, builders assured that this controversy is between authority and farmers. Builders are not involved and very soon Authority will resolve the matter as most of the land has been developed and so many buyers have already invested their money. Buyers were convinced by their words and decided to show their faith with the builders.

But after clearance of land controversy and NCRPB Approvals mandate by Honble Allahabad High Court in his verdict dated 21.10.2011, the Builders became greedy and broke all the promises done before. They increased the previous rates arbitrarily and started cancelling flats without any substantial reason. However, Builder/ CREDAI promised that none of the flat will get canceled of all those buyers who has booked there flat before controversy.

In addition to cancellation, builders are forcing existing buyers to sign an addendum in case the builders have to pay compensation to farmers in future after the land acquisition controversy at Noida Extension. The Builders are completely getting away with their liabilities towards buyers as well as farmers. They want buyersto pay compensation to farmers indirectly which is supposed to pay by the builders/authority as per honble
Allahabad High Court order.

The builders are cancelling the flats on unreasonable stating Service tax not deposited, booking amount paid was less than 10%, non-acceptance of offer to shift in other project within given time, non-payment of the amount for the increase in arbitrarily booked rate from 300 to 1000/- per sq. ft.,non-payment of interest for disputed period which was declared zero period by the Greater Noida Authority.

The NEFOMA believes that these are unethical business practices which are only increasing the liabilities of buyers for all financial expenses which the Builders and The Greater Noida Authority should pay as buyers were not involved and responsible for the unethical land acquisition done by Greater Noida Authority and as per builders they were selling flats legally and as per the reasonable contractual liabilities Hence, this writ petition seeks to stop cancellation, non-legal contractual practices and one-sided legal obligation which are being used by builders to exploit innocent flat owners who invested in various housing projects without knowing of any land controversy at Noida Extension.

The present matter filed by the nefoma has listed 27th May 2013 before Honble High Court and Honble high court was pleased to refer the matter before proper bench and matter got adjourned for 1st july 2013.

The NEFOMA will keep on fighting for the rights of buyers who spend their hard-earned money and dream of a home.

NOIDA: Home buyers of Noida Extension have filed a writ petition in the Allahabad high court demanding a complete stay on the cancellation of bookings of housing units, which is being carried out by a few developers in the region.

The petition has been filed by Noida Extension Flat Owners and Members Association (NEFOMA), an umbrella group of homebuyers that has been fighting for the rights of those who have booked housing units in the projects in the Greater Noida (West) region. The group has approached HC after several pleas to the Greater Noida authority and the district administration did not show any results. The petitioners' counsel, V Kumar, said the homebuyers had held the UP government, the Greater Noida authority and CREDAI responsible for failing to protect their interests.

The buyers want the Centre and the UP governments to enact legislations that safeguard the interests of investors.

The NEFOMA has filed a writ petition in the Honble Allahabad High Court seeking stay on the cancellation of flats by Builders such as the Amrapali , Supertech , Panchsheel ,Earth ,Exotica ,Arihant Arden , Radicon Infrastructure and Housing (P) Ltd.( Vedantam ) just to name a few. The writ has been filed in the honble court not only against the Builders and Builders Association CREDAI but also the Greater Noida Authority for there indifferent attitude towards arbitrary cancellation of flats and non-legal contractual practices done by the Builders towards innocent buyers who has put their hard earnings to buy their dream home.
Buyers totally relied on the Greater Noida Authority land allotment process and CREDAI that builders are selling flats legally and as per the reasonable contractual liabilities. The main purpose of the Contract Law is to have equality between contractual parties without giving undue advantage to any one party. On the other hand, builders used contractual laws to serve their own purposes and ignored the fundamental rights of the buyers entirely.

Buyers booked their flats at a time when there was no land acquisition controversy (and if, it was there, no body i.e.Greater Noida Authority, Builder, Agents informed to the Buyers). They paid the booking amount of their flats as per the rates fixed by the builders themselves when they started their projects which was escalation free as per the Builder Buyer agreement. During the Land Acquisition controversy buyers were concerned about their respective
flats/projects. However, builders assured that this controversy is between authority and farmers. Builders are not involved and very soon Authority will resolve the matter as most of the land has been developed and so many buyers have already invested their money. Buyers were convinced by their words and decided to show their faith with the builders.

But after clearance of land controversy and NCRPB Approvals mandate by Honble Allahabad High Court in his verdict dated 21.10.2011, the Builders became greedy and broke all the promises done before. They increased the previous rates arbitrarily and started cancelling flats without any substantial reason. However, Builder/ CREDAI promised that none of the flat will get canceled of all those buyers who has booked there flat before controversy.

In addition to cancellation, builders are forcing existing buyers to sign an addendum in case the builders have to pay compensation to farmers in future after the land acquisition controversy at Noida Extension.

The builders are cancelling the flats on unreasonable stating Service tax not deposited, booking amount paid was less than 10%, non-acceptance of offer to shift in other project within given time, non-payment of the amount for the increase in arbitrarily booked rate from 300 to 1000/- per sq. ft.,non-payment of interest for disputed period which was declared zero period by the Greater Noida Authority.

The present matter filed by the nefoma has listed today before Honble High Court and Honble high court was pleased to refer the matter before proper bench and matter got adjourned for 1st july 2013. The respondent no. 1 and 2 has also appeared before the court . ( U.P.Govt. and GNIDA )

The NEFOMA will keep on fighting for the rights of buyers who spend their hard-earned money and dream of a home.





Dear Flat Owners,
We ‘NEFOMA’ team has taken a major initiative in regards to current Noida Extension issue against the authority and the builders. This would require more and more helping hands/support from each and everyone of you. As this is not just an issue with few particular builders or with few particular buyers but this has affected everyone of us who has invested here. Not only our hard earned money is at high risk but also our dream home is at risk. This has affected us in every aspect.

We waited patiently throughout the tenure and acted politely but all our so far efforts did not pressurize the concerned departments. They acted as an innocent as if nothing has happened and showed us as these are routine issues with every new township.

But here is the time to come forward and join hands in major numbers and showcase our potential and strength to everyone here….be it be authority or builder or any 3rd party related to these issues.

All we demand is positive outcome which will benefit us and help us to move and live happily in our dream home with our loved ones.

So, please share this with all the buyers and make a genuine request to join us in FULL FORCE to support the major step that NEFOMA has under taken.

Thanks,

NEFOMA ADMIN
