Hi
I have found a property built by a builder.
Property located at Chennai, ECR at neelankarai. 200 mtr from main road.
Builder proposed the plan to corporation on building 4 flats on one block on a ground (2400 sqft) with full parking at ground floor. But after the builder got the approval from corporation, while constructing the building, he added one more apartment at ground floor.
I am buying a flat in the 2nd floor, but my question is, if the corporation comes later and says the building is not constructed as per approval, will they demolish only the apartment space constructed in ground floor or the whole building will be under risk?
Is it recommended to go for this property or it is wise to drop off and look for another?
Because nowadays in cities, most of the construction are not as per the proposed plan or as the approval got from the corporation. Many builders does that.
So, can we consider this as a common or better to skip and go for another?
Or getting a letter of indemnity will reduce risk? Appreciate your expert advice.
Thanks,
Muthukumar. SP

The corporation will demolish only that portion which is not in the authorised plan.
