Telangana RERA Cracks Whip: Builder Ordered to Fix Faulty Apartments

Homeowners in Telangana facing structural woes in their apartments can rejoice! The Telangana Real Estate Regulatory Authority (TSRERA) stepped in with a decisive order, directing a builder to rectify all structural defects plaguing the "Empire Meadows" project in Sangareddy district, Hyderabad.

This ruling by the TSRERA bench, led by Justice Dr. N. Satyanarayana, is a powerful vindication for homebuyers' rights enshrined under Section 14(3) of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 (RERA). This act guarantees that builders are held accountable for fixing structural faults and quality issues even after residents take possession of their flats.

The TSRERA's order goes beyond structural defects. The beleaguered builder must also rectify problems with the Sewage Treatment Plant (STP), generator, drainage system, sewerage pipelines, and rainwater harvesting systems. This ensures residents have a well-functioning living environment, free from foreseeable infrastructure woes.

This landmark decision serves as a wake-up call for both builders and homebuyers in Telangana:

• Builders: Prioritising quality construction and adhering to RERA regulations is non-negotiable. The responsibility falls on you to rectify structural defects and infrastructural issues even after handing over possession of flats.
• Homebuyers: The RERA act empowers you! If you encounter problems with your property post-possession, don't hesitate to leverage the authority and file a complaint.

The Telangana RERA's verdict sets a strong precedent, empowering homebuyers to seek recourse for structural defects and ensuring they receive the quality living space they deserve. This ruling is likely to have ripple effects throughout the state's real estate sector, potentially deterring builders from cutting corners and encouraging them to prioritise quality construction practices.

Looking ahead: It remains to be seen if this ruling will inspire similar interventions by RERA authorities in other Indian states. However, it undoubtedly empowers homebuyers across the country, making them aware of their rights and emboldening them to hold builders accountable for delivering structurally sound and well-equipped residences.
