Builder Legally Obligated To Deliver Completed Unit With Conveyance Deed: NCDRC

The National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC) has ruled that builders are legally obligated to deliver a completed unit along with the conveyance deed to the buyer. The ruling clarifies that merely handing over possession without the legal transfer of title (through a conveyance deed) does not fulfill the builder's contractual obligations. The NCDRC emphasized that the conveyance deed is crucial for the buyer to have clear ownership rights. This decision strengthens consumer rights in real estate transactions, ensuring that buyers receive both physical possession and legal ownership of the property they purchase.
