Re: Advance payment refund from the Builder

If the loan has been rejected because of change of plan by the builder, you may be entitled to not only the refund of your deposit but also damages.

You may first send a demand letter to the builder; and on failure to receive any positive response, you may consider filing a complaint with the local Consumer Forum. It may be better to engage a local lawyer to pursue your remedies.
