[Resolved]  Unitech — Unitech Horizon - Aggrieved Apartment Owners

On behalf of apartment owners o[censored]nitech Horizon, Greater Noida, would like to highlight the trade malpractices followed by Unitech which is considered as an esteemed real estate company of India. Unitech is taking its customers for a toss.

1. Delay in giving possession of apartments by more than 1 year from the original promised date. Even after paying 95% of the cost of apartment, owners are at the mercy o[censored]nitech.

2. Possession letter comes with a shock of enormous increase in super area to already distressed customers. All of the sudden without any prior intimation Unitech has increased super area by as high as 68 sq. ft. at the time of possession. Not even a single sq. ft. of the increased area encompasses carpet area.

3. Time given for the possession is decreased from 30 days (as per contract) to 21 days. I believe in such a time of crisis glooming all over world, Unitech is in a desperate need of money.

4. Exorbitant increase in the maintenance charges from Rs. 1.25/= per sq. ft. to Rs. 2.50/= per sq. ft. Basic amenities for which the maintenance charges are given are not yet ready.

5. Unitech is seeking advance maintenance charges for a period of two years, even though the contract says for 1 year.

6. Society is in inhabitable state as no electricity is available from NPCL. Using power backup will cost as high as 200% to 300% of NPCL rates.

7. No Service Level Agreement is provided for maintenance of the society.

How do I get in touch with any group that is working against Unitech? I am in a simlar situation with my flat and live in the UK.
I have not yet received the possession or any official intimation of possession of my flat in Tower 21.

I agree any arbitrary increase in area without increase in actual area should be dragged to court as it is unacceptable.
It is startling to see so many complaints. And I extend to join hands, as I am yet another aggrieved party.
Left with no choice but to pay the excess amount which was never catered for, only to safeguard a precious investment, leaves me wondering how can such businesses be allowed to flourish at the cost of people, in our esteemed country.
Compeletly agree, I am in the UK, , but very much keen to help if someone is taking any initiative in forming the group. It would also help in future in term s of getting maintenance cost down, , et.etc.
For people who are not end user, forming a group would help in renting them out.
best wishes

Hi

I too have booked a flat at Unitech horizon, but am still awaiting offer of possession from the builder. I expect teh flat to be handed over by June 2010 - almost 2 years after the promised date. I am not really sure as to what the course of action should be and what compensation if any is forthcoming from the builder..

I am quite disturbed after reading these complaints - though most of them were logged in more than a year ago. Can anyone tell what is happening now and if your complaints have been resolved yet. If anyone of you has started living at the project, how is it all shaping up and is the project as good as it seemed to be when we all booked the apartment..
This was my fist and the last time I ever dealt with Unitech, I only get a negative and ill feelings for this company for the experience they gave me.

All I can say to all the prospective buyer o[censored]nitech projects. Please AVOID dealing with them they are unprofessional and Crooks.
Patience pays off in the end! I am a proud customer o[censored]nitech, my project too was delayed, but they did complete their commitments on time to my satisfaction. As far as taking advance payments is concerned, Even Reliance Power collected money from the general public to start their project without even a stone being laid. So have patience guys Unitech is second largest in the field they are in, so don't worry what I would suggest is take some time and give them a personal visit and I am sure they would be happy to help.
I think by now things must have been sorted out, huge scale projects needs time for things to sort out. I hope you are happy with Unitech and enjoying your new home
I totally agree with you that it is very sad that a premium company like Unitech is unable to achieve its commitments, but I feel it is largely because of the recession in the recent times that these conditions were created. No company was spared from it and this is why I feel the delay took place. Although Unitech is still trying to bounce back from this we cannot ignore the fact that it needs some time to get over such trauma in the market. Hoping all your dreams come true.
Hey I think the tag line should have been Consumer complaints not Unitech Limited the posts become irrelevant.
I am sure you must have got you possession by now. While doing advance payments, you should remember that you are putting you money in safe hands, as Unitech is a very reputed company. Sometimes, such big project get delayed because some of the work is subcontracted to other contractors and all these construction processes are interlinked, which makes a small delays turn into bigger ones. I would suggest you not to worry and be patient.
i totally agree, also I wish to make you aware that inspite paying the full registration charges as asked by Unitech Ltd. last moment I got a shock of my life when Unitech asked me to pay additional Rs 17500 as new tax charged by Greater Noida Authority. At the last minute I was asked to pay or else the registry wiil not happen. After repeatedly asking what the extra charges all about, they were not able to explain the reason. I think this a penalty which Greater Noida Authority has imposed on the builder for delaying in registration. Will update once i get a response.
Hey Nishchal, any updates on this registry issue? I am looking to buy one there and this concerns me a lot.
Hi,

I bought a plot in Unitech Unihome project at Sec-Mu Greater Noida in Late 2008. I have paid 85% under timed link payment plan.
When I went to unitech office to pay last installment the officials available in the Grand Pavillion, Noida Expressway office told that project has got delayed so they have changed my plan to construction linked plan. Since than it has been four years they have not raised any demand. When I call them in the office, they say they there were some problems which have been sorted out now and the possession will be given in next 12-15 months.

I had bout this property for constructing and living in the Greens and peace of Gr. Noida.
Unitech has already delayed project for more than 4 yrs now. Please suggest what shall I do now.
Is there is any forum for this project who have either already taken any action or are planning to go to court

Dear All,

Thanks for this extremely valuable information on the project. This is not only useful for all the affected owners, but also those who wish to invest in this project and are not aware of the underlying issues.

I am about to close a deal for buying a flat in tower 18 through a dealer. He says its not registered and it will be builder transfer. Can you please let me know if registry issue is still there with this project.

How much time will it take for the registry?

Is registration open for apartments in Unitech Horizon?? Why is the apartment owner being penalised by the authorities for dues not paid by the builder?? I am sure most o[censored]s have purchased this apartment with our hard earned money and now not being able to even register the apartment seems criminal to me.. What is my fault i[censored]nitech has not paid its dues to the authorities??
