First Check whether any condition is put in the sale agreement.
if so, what are the terms.
if no condition is put, normally 10% will be deducted as cancellation charges.
Tell him to deduct 5 % to 10 % and not more, advise him that you will get a stay on construction for not repaying.
otherwise you can take legal course for recovery by filing a suit or taking him to consumer court.

It all will be basically governed by the terms of the contract between the parties. Since details of terms have not been provided, no comments can be offered.

It all depends on the terms of agreement between you and the builder, which needs to be looked into in toto.

Sir,
Since your breaking the contract, the company is entitled to retain the earnest you paid. You should negotiate with the company for the same.
