Can we file a class action against a builder for delayed flats and missing amenities in Mumbai?

Question

About 80 buyers in our housing project have faced repeated possession delays and many promised amenities were never delivered. The builder is offering small refunds individually but we want a collective case and compensation. Is a class action possible in India, and what documents and timeline should we expect?

Lexim · Accepted Answer

Yes. A collective / representative action is legally maintainable in India for homebuyers facing delay in possession and deficiency in promised amenities. The appropriate forum, strategy, documents, and timeline depend on how your project is structured and what relief you seek.
