Builder charging extra for parking

When I purchased my apartment in 2016, my builder said I need to pay for parking allotment. Different values for stilt and open parking. I paid for open parking since I was strapped for funds. He gave me an allotment letter showing the position of the parking as I wanted. Three years went by and the builder converted most of the open parking to closed parking as he needed to build a club house above the parking. Now he is claiming if I need to get the parking ar the spot assigned to me then I need to pay the closed parking charges. If I want open as assigned I need to park at another wing which is very far away from my building. What should I do. Can he do this?

Absolutely No. As per case law of SC builder cannot charge niether for open nor for closed parking.

Most probably the parking stilt area is excluding FAR or FSI. If so , go to the consumer court.
