New Delhi, Aug 24 (TIWN) The Supreme Court on Monday said the flat buyers are entitled to compensation for delayed handing over of possession and for the failure of the developer to fulfil the representations made to them in connection with the provision of amenities.

“A failure of the developer to comply with the contractual obligation to provide the flat to a flat purchaser within a contractually stipulated period amounts to a deficiency. There is a fault, shortcoming or inadequacy in the nature and manner of performance which has been undertaken to be performed in pursuance of the contract in relation to the service.”
