Dear Sirs
My father had purchased two rooms in a chawl in 1981 with inbuilt toilet and water facilities. There were two meters for the same. The owner of the chawl then sold the plot to a builder who claims that the whole area comes under SRA though we and a few others were the only ones who had toilet and water in the house and the total area of the house was more than 350 sq. feet.
The builder says that we are only entitled to one flat under SRA even though we had two rooms (combined) in the chawl and the area of the new flat would be 350 sq feet. When all the other tenants who had single rooms will get the same area of 350 square feet, then how come we will get the same? we are entitled for double of that. We approached a lawyer who said the same thing so I am approaching all you gentlemen for your kind advice. One lawyer stated that one of the two rooms should be made in the name of any of the children in order to get double the area.
I shall appreciate if you could give me your best advice on the matter to take corrective action.
