However, for the default of the company, the company was liable to pay only 9% interest to the allottee on only such amount which the company deemed refundable to the allottee. That makes the clause abusive, one sided and shows blatant abuse of dominance. In clause 12, the company has given events of defaults and consequences for the allottee. The company has nowhere given in the entire agreement the events of defaults for itself. The Commission considers that the defaults can be on the part of the company as well on the part of the allottees and the agreement should provide for defaults of both the parties and the agreement must be equitable in dealing with both the sides and levy of interest /penalty should of equal level on both sides. The Commission also considers that Force Majeure in clause 39 should be defined as understood in common parlance of law. The consequent modifications are suggested in the clauses 35 & 39. In view of the modified clauses/sub clauses as suggested above in the agreement, certain clauses/sub clauses of the agreement have become superfluous. The Commission has suggested deletion of these clauses. Cer .....

The Commission found that DLF Ltd. had abused its dominant position and violated the provisions of Section 4 of the Competition Act, 2002(the Act) as DLF had made the flat owners i.e. members of the Informant association to sign a highly abusive apartment buyers agreement. In para 12.90 of its order, the Commission had noted a number of clauses of the agreement as examples of abusive nature. The Commission observed in para 12.91 that DLF Ltd. had made it clear to the allottees that no alterations/modifications were to be made in the said agreement by the allottees. The Commission in para 12.95 had observed regarding commencement of project without sanction/approval, increase in number of floors midway, increase of Floor Area Ratio(FAR) and density per acre(DPA), inordinate delay in completion and possession, forfeiture of amounts, etc. etc. The Commission found that the clauses of the agreement were biased in favour of DLF Ltd. In para 12.101, the Commission observed that certain clauses in the agreement gave DLF a sole discretion in respect of making changes in zoning .....

The exact terms and conditions of the agreement were not formulated as it involved specific contract with each buyer in respect of service/goods to be provided by the DLF and freedom was given by Commission to the parties to enter into mutually agreed contract. It was expected that in each such agreement DLF shall properly define the product/service as it was having exact spaces/carpet areas/common areas/dimensions etc. applicable in respect of that buyer and it shall clearly state all requisite clearances which it had obtained at the time of entering agreement. It was also expected that it shall state the cost of the product/service to the buyers with no hidden and indirect charges and it shall also clearly lay down the delivery schedule stage wise. It was also expected that one sided clauses shall be suitably modified so as to remove the abuse of dominance. 3.

He even argued that since the project stands completed and possession given, no modification in the agreement was at all necessary. 5. Before considering the modifications to be made in the clauses of the agreement, it is necessary to know relevant provisions of applicable laws for the development of a housing project in Gurgaon, Haryana and the place and role of a builder and buyer under the law. It is quite necessary to have a clear view of the laws applicable to both the parties and their respective rights in order to give directions in respect of preventing/stopping abuse of dominance and to indicate the extent and manner of modification of an agreement governing their inter se rights and obligations. 6. The main Act which governs development of group housing colonies by a coloniser in Haryana is the Haryana Development and Regulation of Urban Areas Act, 1975 (Act of 1975) coupled with the Haryana Development and Regulation of Urban Area Rules, 1976( Rules of 1976). Under section 3 of the Act of 1975, an owner of land desirous of converting it into a colony /group housing, can make an application to the Director, ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... or, Town and Country Planning, Haryana Government has discretion to reduce this percentage to 35% if in his opinion the planning requirement and size of the colony justify the same. However, he has to record reasons for reducing this percentage. (vi) The coloniser/ builder only acts as a developer. Once he has developed a Group Housing Complex and the apartment owners have paid the cost of External Development Charges (EDC), price of apartment and other charges, the builder is not supposed to have any right or concern left in the property. This is clear from the fact that under Rule 11 of the Rules of 1976, the builder after development of roads, drainage, sewage, water supply and electricity inside the colony has to maintain it only for a period of five years or till the association of plot owners takes the responsibility and release the builder of the maintenance responsibility. Similarly, the builder is supposed to pay EDC proportionate to the area of the colony/dwelling group housing unit to the Govt. for development of main lines of road, drainage, sewage, water and electricity. A builder is to give undertaking to construct, at his own cost or get constructed by any instit ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... ommon areas and facilities. Common areas of the plot of land on which Group Housing Colony is developed, in fact, belong to and are meant for the common use of apartment owners and once the apartments are sold, all the common areas and facilities vest jointly in apartment owners and are to be maintained by apartment owners by forming an association in terms of the laws laid down by Haryana Govt. (ix) The coloniser has to sign an agreement with the Haryana Govt. that he shall derive maximum net profit only of 15% of the total project cost of the development of colony after making provisions of statutory taxes. In case the net profit exceeds 15% after completion of the project, the surplus amount either has to be deposited with the State Govt. treasury within two months of the completion or he has to spend this money on further amenities /facilities in the colony for the benefit of residents. Further, the Act of 1983 was enacted to provide for ownership of individual apartments and make ownership rights as transferable for the promotion of group housing in the State of Haryana. As per Section 5 of the Act, owner of every apartment, as defined in the Act, is required to execut .....

Judgment of Supreme Court in 'Nihal Chand Lallu Chand Pvt. Ltd. vs. Pancholi Cooperative Housing (AIR 2010 SC 3607)' also has bearing. In the judgment, it was held that garage is not an independent unit by itself, but is an appurtenant or attachment to flat within the meaning of Section 2(a-1) of Maharashtra Ownership Flats(Regulations of Promotion of Construction, Sale, Management and Transfer) Act, 1963 (MOFA). Open to sky-parking area or stilted portion usable as parking space was not garage within the meaning of Section 2(a-1) of the Act and not sellable independently as flat or along with flat. However, promoter was entitled to charge price for common areas and facilities from each flat purchaser in proportion to carpet area of flat. Further, the Act mandated the promoter to describe common areas and facilities in advertisement as well as agreement with flat purchaser and indicate price of flat including proportionate price of common areas and facilities. Stilt parki .....

Admittedly, the rights of the allottees have been restricted to Belaire Group Housing Complex only. The reference to phase V Belaire agreement in unnecessary and may have potential of being abused. Recital 'D' made it clear that the agreement was confined and limited in its scope only to this Group Housing Complex (Belaire) to be constructed by the company on the portion of land delineated in Annexure I and IA of the agreement. However, neither Annexure I nor I A gives the area of land of Belaire Complex, nor the area of 6.67 acres given in agreement is in conformity of FAR norms. Every Group Housing Scheme/Complex has to comply with all Rules and Regulations in respect of Group Housing Complex. These Rules and Regulations are mandatorily required to be followed by the coloniser/ builder. The recitals have been framed in such .....

The company cannot claim ownership of even an inch of the open area of the land of the complex. The entire land area of the complex falls under joint ownership of the allottees. The ownership is indivisible and the allottees have a right to manage the same by forming an association and can tell the company to move out of the area with lock stock and barrel. Thus, the company's argument that it retains ownership rights over the open area even after sale of apartments is not tenable and all such clauses in the agreement put by the company giving it a claim/ right over the open areas/ common areas, etc. amounted to abuse of dominance and this abuse can be removed by modifying the abusive clause and providing in the agreement about the obligation of the company to abide by the Laws, Rules and Regulations as applicable to a Group Housing Complex. It would be worthwhile to mention that for making a Group Housing Complex, the maximum FAR applicable in 2009 was 175%. The restriction on number of storeys /floors was, however, removed. The company on removal of this restriction raised .....

The rate of interest should be commensurate with rate of interest being charged by the company from allottee on delayed payments. If the amount is adjusted against the balance payment payable by the allottee, it should be adjusted alongwith interest. The suggested modification is given in clause 1.5. 16. In the order, the Commission observed that DLF enjoyed unilateral right to increase or decrease super area at sole discretion without consulting allottees who, nevertheless, were bound to pay additional amount or accept the reduction in area. When the construction of a multi storey building is envisaged, the plans are drawn on drawing board. Most of the group Housing Complexes are sold on the basis of the plans drawn on drawing board. Super area and the actual apartment area are two different concepts. The apartment area is the area which is exclusively enjoyed by the apartment owner. It includes carpet area plus area under the walls of the apartment, while super area is the sum of apartment area and common areas which the allottee enjoys along with other apartment owners. This are .....

The company in so many words stated that the allottee will only have proportionate ownership rights in the land underneath the building i.e. the land which is the footprint of the building in which the said apartment is situated. Similarly, company has unlawfully provided for itself right to further go up in air by increasing the number of floors and reserving to itself terrace rights. This is totally contrary to the law and imposition of this condition on the allottee by DLF is because of its dominance and amounts to gross abuse. All relevant clauses depriving allottee of his lawful rights need to be modified to bring them in conformity with Law, Rules and Regulations so as to remove the abuse vis-a-vis the allottee. Modified clauses are given in the table below. 18. In the order, the Commission observed that the covenant in clause 1.7(viii) of the agreement, giving right to DLF of having .....

In the order, the Commission observed that DLF's sole discretion to link one project to another was abusive in nature. Interlinking of projects for the purpose of m ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... given in the table below. 21. In the order, the Commission observed that clause 1.14 of the agreement was abusive since it gave sole discretion to DLF regarding arrangement for power supply and rates levied for the sale of power to the allottees. By this clause, the company takes away the right of Allottees' Association to get competitive offers from other players. DLF has arbitrarily foisted compulsory payments for another service- provider on the allottee. Clause 1.13 and 1.14 of the agreement are interconnected. Clause 1.13 is about power backup whenever the supply of DHBVN (State Electricity Board) is not there. Clause 1.14 envisages a situation when DHBVN fails to supply electricity to the complex. So long as Resident Welfare Association of the Complex does not take charge of services of the complex, the company is bound to provide essential services to the complex in terms of maintenance agreement, but once RWA takes over the responsibilities of the complex, it will have freedom to continue with the service providers engaged by the company or to enter into fresh contracts with some service provider or engage new service provider. Also since the Company marketed and sol ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... of the fault of the allottee, the company was not even liable to return the amount actually paid by the allottee to the company with interest but the company, out of the amount paid by the allottee was to deduct the interest paid by the allottee and the interest due towards allottee on delayed payment as well as to deduct amount of non refundable nature. The company had not specified as to what was the amount of non-refundable nature to be deducted. Similar provision is there in clause 11.2 towards refund of amount attributable to the agreement without interest in case of the project getting scrapped altogether. Clause 11.3 provides that if for the reasons other than clause 11.1, 11.2 and clause 39, the company fails to deliver the possession to the allottees within three years from the date of execution of agreement or within the extended period (the company having liberty to extend the period to any extent.) then the allottee shall be entitled to give notice to the company within 90 days from the expiry of the said period of three years or extended period of terminating the agreement. Even in that event the company was not liable to refund the amount deposited by the allottee a ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... to extend the period of delivery of possession on self serving grounds like non availability of material, non availability of work force, any govt. notifications, orders or litigations in the Court, which may even have been invited by the company itself, without any penalty on the company for such extended period of delivery. The allottee in case of delay in payment of the instalment had to pay interest to the company @ 15% within 1st 90 days and 18% thereafter. Even where the company failed to deliver the possession within the extended period, a written notice is to be given by the allottee with duly acknowledge receipt of the company whereas the company unilaterally, without any prior notice could terminate the agreement even in case of default in payment of instalment by the allottee. The abuse of dominance is self evident from the provisions of these clauses. The Commission considers that the above clauses should be modified in the manner as given in the table to make this agreement non abusive. 24. Clause 13 is regarding execution of conveyance deed in favour of apartment allottee who has paid full consideration amount to company. The transfer of ownership has to be in acco ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... riefly narrated above. These laws make it abundantly clear that once the plan for Group Housing Complex is approved by the competent authority as per the applicable FAR and these apartments are sold on the basis of such approved plans, the company is left with no rights either in the sold apartments or in the common areas. Once the apartments of the complex are sold for considerations or agreed to be sold, the company cannot change the plans without approval of the allottees since the allottees are charged not only for the apartment but for all internal and external developments including common areas, open areas, external and internal infrastructure. The allottees while entering into the agreement had before them the complex as promised to be developed by the developer and they put their hard earned money keeping in mind the number of flats to come up, the kind of facilities to be given, population density, the open green areas and other common facilities etc. The joint ownership rights of apartments allottees over common areas and land and the apartment ownership rights of the allottees go together. The company cannot take away these rights from the allottees. Once the company ha ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... ottee is also joint owner of all the open areas, common facilities etc. within the complex. Therefore, when the complex is ready and conveyance deeds are executed with the allottees, the whole complex has to be free from all encumbrances and of mortgage, charges or any kind of loan from financial institutions or banks over the complex. If the company has any unpaid loan of the banks /financial institution after the apartments are sold, the banks etc. can have lien only over unsold apartments for recovery of dues of the company. Clause 23, 24 25 should be modified as given in the table below to remove this abuse. 29. The Commission, in its order, observed that while heavy penalties were imposed in the agreement for default of allottee, there were insignificant penalties on DLF for its own defaults. A reference was made to clause 35 of the agreement, which shows abuse of dominance. The company can refuse to condone delay and can cancel the apartment even if the allottee was prepared to pay interest on delayed payment. While in case of company, the company for itself has reserved so many excuses for non delivery of possession and for scrapping the contract altogether or for delay ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... t from the applicants/buyers, this agreement was forced upon the allottees and the allottee had no option but to sign the agreement, as otherwise the agreement provided for heavy penalties and deduction from the money already deposited by the allottees with the company, which itself was an abuse of dominance. The appropriate procedure would have been that a copy of the agreement which DLF proposed to enter with the allottee should have been made available to the applicants at the time of inviting applications. The agreement should be signed within a reasonable time from the date of allotment and all additional amounts should be demanded from the allottee only when the agreement has been signed. Any allottee, who was not agreeable to the terms of agreement, should have liberty to withdraw his application and should be given the entire application amount back. ..................(TABLE IN PLAIN TEXT START )....................
