Immediately file a suit for specific performance of contract and injunction.
The builder can not alter the plan at his sweet will jeopardising your future business plans.
Alternatively you can file case under Consumer Protection Act and apart from the same reliefs you cn claim damages as well.

You should file a reply against the letter received from builder seeking your acceptance of alternate place in strong way and thereafter should serve him with a legal notice from your lawyer seeking execution of already entered document claiming huge damages. Before proceeding further, it shall be necessary for you go in depth the terms and conditions of already executed agreement to the effect whether the builder has given a right to cancel the agreement subject to any condition. if such term is prevalent then it shall be good to go for refund of excess amount changed with interest and damages and meanwhile alteration should be accepted under protest.

If there is no term for cancellation then it shall be good to agitate under suit for specific performance.
