Hello
Iam the buyer of property in Hyderabad .The open plot prices in Hyderabad vary as per the approvals available for
the open plots/layouts ie1. HMDA ( Hyderabad Metro Development Authority ) , 2.DTCP ( Directorate of Town and
Country Planning ) and 3. unapproved plots wherein the prices are least for unapproved
I paid a advance of 1,00,000 INR towards purchase of a HMDA approved plot on 1st July 2022 .The owner cum
seller of the plot signed the token receipt as a " HMDA approved layout " and he offered me to sell as though it is
HMDA approved plot and charged me as per the HMDA plot prices prevalent .
The plot owner cum seller assured to produce the HMDA approval letter in few days but failed to do so .
Few days down the line, the plot owner cum seller again demanded ten lakhs to exhibit the HMDA approval letter , I
paid him ten lakhs, took a receipt from him in which it is clearly mentioned as HMDA approved plot but the owner
cum seller couldnot produce the HMDA approval copy of the plot or layout .
Later ,I enquired with HMDA Office and got a a written statement from them through RTI Act that the plot or layout is not HMDA approved and the plot stands unapproved .
I sent a notice letter to plot owner cum seller that I was ready to go ahead with the registration of the property subject to the condition that rates are being revised as is was no more a HMDA approved plot .There is no response from him till now .
Can I file a suit for specific performance to sell ? Is there a format for it? Please help
