Filed application under section 1/10 of cpc

With folded hands I seek your valuable advise and guidance on the following position :

The Owner of a plot and the residential house Builder entered into a Collaboration Agreement between both them stating that the Builder shall construct the Building with two flats (ground floor) and first floor flat and the Builder shall take the Second Floor (with Roof Rights) for his consideration of the Collaboration Agreement. Further, the agreement stipulates that the builder shall arrange funds from his sources. The Buillder approaches me and enters into an Agrement to Sell for Second Floor Flat (with roof rights) and starting taking money as planned. Practically, Builder does not completes the Construction and fulfill the responsibilities under the Agreement. The Owner of the plot takes possession of the Second Floor Flat which is planned to be given to the Builder as a consideration for construction of the Building. The Collaboration Agreement is not registered with the concerned Authority at the time when it was executed.

The owner filed a complaint with Police Station for not having completed the work in time. A three month's extention time was mutually agreed between the Owner and the Builder. The Owner was not happy and did not pay any heed to the request of the Builder. The builder filed a case in court of law for claiming possession under specific perfomrance of the agreement. I have paid more than what was scheduled to be paid under the "Agreement to Sell" and the balance was to be paid on complete and satisfactory transfer of the flat, which the Builder did not do. I was a loser and had to move forward to the gain possession of flat in whatever possession.

Since the work was not complete, the owner was also in touch with me. He opined that you take the possession. I moved into the flat and complete the remaining major work and incurred lacs of rupees. On the first date of hearing the case filed by The Builder against the Owner, I filed an application under section 1/10 of CPC for allowing me to make my submssions before the court. The Builder expired after filing the case in the court. The legal representatives have requested the court to be a party to the Case.

What is my status under section 1/10 of CPC under the above circumstances.

The case is titled between the Builder and the Owner. Should I also file a case against the Builder and Owner to consolidate my position.

Major Question : In case the Owner of the Building sells the newly constructed building, will the transfer of Title be genuine to the purchase. Shall I face difficulty in case the new purchaser asks me to get out of the top floor (second floor) Please advise no one can pass a better title than one has.

For your information, the owner has executed a general power of attorney in my name before the first date of hearing of the case filed by the Builder.


Please explain the scope of the Floor with Roof Rights.

Your valuable advice is solicited and this would help me in forming my course of action in the above case.

Applicability of service tax and vat on flats

Dear Sir,

Greetings for the day !!!

We feel privileged to have your views here in this forum. I have a query regarding applicability of Service Tax and Vat on Flats.

Recently I booked a flat in Bangalore. The Company has provided flats on RIGHT TO OCCUPANCY basis and there will not be any sale deed for the said flats. We can implied from this, that whatever amount I have given to the Company (i.e. Consideration to occupy that flat) has been treated as deposit with the Company and at any point of time, when I may surrender my flat (RIGHT TO OCCUPANCY) to the Company and can get my money (consideration paid to occupy flat) back .

The Company did not charge Service Tax and VAT on such flats earlier due to their contention that it is merely transfer of RIGHT TO OCCUPANCY. But now the Company is asking for Service Tax and VAT on the said flat.

My queries are as follows :

1) What is the difference in the SALE OF FLATS and RIGHT TO OCCUPANCY only?

2) Whether Service Tax and VAT is applicable on RIGHT TO OCCUPANCY of any Flat? (since renting of dwelling units does not attract service tax, as well as the ownership in the flats has also not been transferred in my name, it remains with the Company and I enjoy only right to occupancy of the flat).

Thanks & Regards
