Claiming refund for delay in property handover after full payment

I have bought three apartments in a project and the delivery date was in 2018. I have paid 100% and nothing is pending.

The builders informed me that the delivery will be in July 2019 but now they are saying the end of Dec for one apartment and the rest in 2020.

If I want to withdraw and cancel the contract, can I get the complete refund and will I receive the interest too?

Dear Questioner,

Pursuant to your question, you have a right to claim compensation or cancel the whole deal as the builder has defaulted on their promises.

Further, we would like to go through the contract between you and the builder to comment further and assist you further

Kindly contact us on the phone for a detailed discussion or write to us at our email for further assistance

Thanks a lot, Madam, for the prompt response.

I will discuss with them again and revert back to you with their reply and meet you if needed to discuss in detail.

Apparently, there is a delay in the completion date. But in order to answer you I have to review the SPA and then will advise on your inquiry.
