The Two flat owners' associations namely Belaire Owners' Association in Gurgaon and Park Place Residents' Welfare Association have filed a caveat in the competition appellate tribunal COMPAT, requesting it not to decide on case concerning Indian realty major DLF without giving them a chance of hearing.The case pertains to fair trade regulator CCI (Competition Commission of India ) having imposed Rs. 630 crore penalty on DLF for abusing its dominant position and imposing unfair conditions on the buyers of its flats. DLF, in turn, plans to move the COMPAT challenging the CCI order.
Belaire Owners' Association and Park Place Residents' Welfare Association have filed a caveat in the COMPAT, to be heard first, in case DLF challenged the CCI's order.
Caveat, which means "let it beware", is filed by a party before any judicial forum so that no order is passed without hearing him.
The CCI had imposed the fine on DLF following an enquiry on a complaint filed by a Belaire Owners' Association and Park Place Resident's Association.
In 2010 May, the associations had complained to CCI that DLF had promised to complete the residential projects in Gurgaon in 2009, but the buyers are yet to get the possession.
Besides, it alleged that DLF, imposed highly arbitrary, unfair and unreasonable conditions on the apartment allottees, which has serious adverse effects and ramifications on the rights of the allottees. Meanwhile, the CCI found that DLF had announced the project before getting necessary conditions and clearances, and delayed the completion of the project.
