Consumer courts can award: (1) Refund of amount paid; (2) Replacement of defective goods; (3) Removal of service deficiency; (4) Compensation for mental agony and harassment; (5) Punitive damages for intentional unfair practice; (6) Cost of litigation.

Yes — through two routes: (1) UP RERA Complaint — fastest; builder must refund with 10.75% interest or hand over possession; (2) Consumer Court — compensation for deficiency and mental harassment. Both can be filed simultaneously. Criminal complaint under IPC 420 (cheating) is also an option for fraudulent builders. Do not wait — approach a lawyer immediately; delays can weaken your case.
Under the Consumer Protection Act 2019, the complaint must be filed within 2 years from the date on which the cause of action arose. Courts can condone delay if sufficient cause is shown. For ongoing deficiencies (like non-delivery of possession), the limitation runs from when the builder clearly refuses. Do not delay — contact Advocate Faizan Siddiqui at +91-9911387328 for a consultation.
