PUDA to pay interest for delayed payment Ludhiana, February 24 According to a complaint, the consumer had deposited Rs 3,000 on February 16, 1989 for registration of a high income group (HIG) house at Ludhiana. The representative of the complainant, Mr S.S. Sarna, stated that the consumer had been allotted registration number (381/89), but after that no information was given to her. Mr Sarna disclosed that in March, 2000, when the consumer went to the property dealer for the purchase of the plot and inquired about the scheme, she was told that PUDA had refunded the earnest money of Rs 3,000 to all applicants. He further disclosed that PUDA had not done the survey. When the consumer did not receive her earnest money and as such she wrote letters on April 14 and August 14, 2000 to the Chief Administrator, PUDA, for refund of the earnest money along with interest at the rate of 18 per cent per annum, but to no avail, he added. The consumer alleged that PUDA had caused her mental torture and agony. She demanded from the forum that the PUDA should be directed to refund Rs 3,000 along with interest at the rate of 18 per cent per annum from the date of deposit till actual payment. Moreover the compensation of Rs 5,000 had also been demanded. The PUDA pleaded that the consumer had deposited Rs 3,000 for the demand survey of proposed HIG houses at Ludhiana against the registration no. 381/189, and the said amount was not received as earnest money. The respondent disclosed that all applicants had been intimated through an advertisement published in ‘The Tribune’ on May 11, 1990, to send their written consent for ‘partial self finance scheme’ of HIG houses at Ludhiana within the stipulated time mentioned in it. It further disclosed that it had been also mentioned in the advertisement, the applicants had to complete minimum earnest money of Rs 10,000, but the complainant failed to do so. The PUDA clarified that neither the complainant had deposited the earnest money nor she gave consent for the said purpose. Moreover, she did not even make any request for refund of the demand survey amount. It stated that it had sent a lump sum amount of Rs 10,00,000 to the Chief Manager, Punjab and Sindh Bank, Saban Bazaar, Ludhiana, in 1995 along with the list of applicants, authorising the bank to refund the earnest money. But due to a fire in the bank, the most of its records were burnt and as such the records could not be tallied with the actual refund figures, It added. The respondent stated that on the written request of the complainant for the refund of the said amount, she had been paid vide a cheque issued on September 6, 2001, which was sent through registered post. The respondent explained, “Question of payment of interest does not arise as it was made clear in the advertisement published on October 2, 1989 that no interest on the registration fee shall be payable”. It was demanded that since the registration fee had already been refunded, the complaint was liable to be dismissed. The forum observed that it was an admitted fact that the consumer had deposited Rs 3,000 as registration fee while the respondent had refunded the same on September 12, 2001. The forum further observed that as per the terms and conditions, the PUDA had to pay the interest on the amount refunded to the consumer. The forum stated that the consumer had applied for the refund on August 14, 2000, but she got the said amount after about 13 months. The forum held that the respondent should have made the payment within one month, as such it was liable to pay interest. |
