Delay condoned. We have heard the Learned Counsel for the Petitioner and perused the impugned orders passed by the State Commission. Learned Counsel does not dispute that the Respondents/Complainants had made payment of substantial amount to the Petitioner on different dates for allotment of the flats in question. However, the possession of the flats had not been handed over to the Complainants, on account of which they approached the District Forum, which had directed the present Petitioner to refund the entire amount deposited by them, along with interest @ 12% p.a., and some amounts towards compensation and costs also. It is not in dispute that the Petitioner had accepted the amount, so deposited by the Complainants for allotment and handing over possession of the flats in question, which the Petitioner had admittedly not done and, therefore, the District Forum as well as the State Commission have rightly directed the Petitioner to refund the entire amount to the Complainants, along with interest, and to pay some amounts towards compensation and costs. In view of the above, the orders impugned in these Revision Petitions do not suffer from any irregularity so as to warrant any interference by this Commission in exercise of the revisionary powers. Accordingly, all the Revision Petitions are dismissed. |
