HC orders 220 flats' registry after builder in Noida offers to pay Rs25cr more

Noida: The Allahabad high court has asked Noida Authority to execute flat registries at Grand Omaxe and Forest Spa projects in Sector 93B, paving the way for 220 families to finally get their property documents. The order came after the developer agreed to deposit an additional Rs 25 crore with the Authority in two weeks, making 50 more flats eligible for registry. The company had earlier deposited Rs 93 crore under the state govt's rehabilitation policy for stalled projects, which allowed 170 flats to be cleared for registration. The projects — comprising 1,692 sanctioned flats in total — had 678 pending registries among them. The issue first surfaced in 2018, when 30 Grand Omaxe allottees approached the high court, alleging they were denied tripartite sub-lease deeds despite paying the full amount because of the developer's unpaid lease premium. You Can Also Check: Noida AQI | Weather in Noida | Bank Holidays in Noida | Public Holidays in Noida In an interim order on March 23, 2018, the court asked the Authority not to issue any further occupation or completion certificates for other projects until further orders. It clarified that if the developer deposited the full arrears with interest, the Authority could process applications for completion or occupation certificates of those additional projects. The case expanded when Forest Spa homebuyers — with their three towers and 176 flats — joined the litigation in 2021. Its AOA urged the court to hear their petition jointly with Grand Omaxe, saying both projects concerned the same developer and land parcel. A breakthrough came through UP govt's Dec 2023 order, which offered relief to stalled projects if developers paid 25% of recalculated dues. The developer's original dues of Rs 545 crore were revised to Rs 374 crore, considering a two-year 'zero period' during the Covid pandemic. After it paid the mandatory advance of 25% or Rs 93 crore, the developer unlocked permission to register 170 flats. During recent hearings, the developer insisted it was willing to pay the remaining dues so that flats in both Grand Omaxe and Forest Spa could be registered. On May 29, the court suggested an amicable settlement, following which the developer agreed to deposit another Rs 25 crore within a month. The Authority informed the court this additional amount would pave the way for 50 more registries. It told the court there would be "no impediment in granting occupancy certificates and other necessary permissions" for the two projects. The bench of Justices Manoj Kumar Gupta and Anish Kumar Gupta acknowledged the submission made by the Authority about the possibility of both projects being granted OCs within four weeks. The bench also ordered that any dispute regarding sub-lease entitlement must be resolved by the Authority CEO within a week. If homebuyers fail to complete formalities within two weeks of notification, the next person on the waiting list would get the opportunity, it clarified. "The list of homebuyers, along with the date of buyer-builder agreement or date of allotment provided by the developer, and the list submitted by the Forest Spa Association of Apartment Owners with names of transferees, successors, or joint owners, would be used for executing sub-leases," the court observed. The Authority must also file a status report by the next hearing, scheduled this month itself. This report will outline the progress of sub-leases and any remaining issues, ensuring that eligible homebuyers can secure legal ownership of their flats.

Ghaziabad hospital told to pay retired railway employee s 17k for claim process delay

Ghaziabad: District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (DCDRC) has directed the Northern Railways chief medical superintendent (CMS) to pay over Rs 17,000 to a retired railway employee — as reimbursement and compensation for claim delay. While payment of Rs 12,398 has been ordered as treatment reimbursement for cataract surgery, that of Rs 5,000 has been directed as the compensation for delaying the payment of the claim. The commission also directed the payment to be made within 45 days of the order, failing which interest calculated at 6% would have to be paid.

Devilal Singh, who superannuated from the post of chief medical superintendent (CMS) in 2012, had filed an application before the DCDRC for direction to CMS, Delhi divisional office and assistant chief medical superintendent (ACMS) of Railway Hospital Ghaziabad. The complainant said during retirement, he was provided with a medical card covering him and his family members. He told the commission, "When I felt some problem with my right eye, I consulted the doctors at JP Hospital, Noida, and underwent a surgery on April 10, 2019, for which I paid Rs 35,890. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Once again, I had some issues with my right eye and was advised by doctors at JP Hospital to undergo a cataract surgery, which was conducted on Oct 1, 2019. This time, I paid Rs 30,500 towards the bills raised by the hospital. When I applied for reimbursement of the treatment cost with ACMS (Railway Hospital Ghaziabad) with all relevant documents, it was rejected, which was not just a deficiency in services but also illegal. " The complainant later filed an RTI application and was informed by the railways that his first claim of Rs 35,890 was settled by the railway department by paying Rs 1,786, as was admissible under the policy of Central Govt Health Service (CGHS). The complainant contended that since he was an employee of the railway, his claims could not be dealt with under the CGHS policy and were governed by the railway board. The counsel for the opponents said that railway authorities follow the railway board policy of 2005, effective since Jan 2007, under which beneficiaries can obtain treatment at hospitals recognised by the railways. "The beneficiaries are free to obtain treatment at any hospital of their choice, but in that case, reimbursement is done according to CGHS rates as applicable," the counsel said. He told the commission the second claim was rejected for inadequacy of documents. Get the latest lifestyle updates on Times of India, along with Doctor's Day 2025 , messages and quotes!
