The interest on that amount in the form of PRE-EMIs was to be paid by the respondent builder.

The honourable tribunal observed that “the date of possession was not mentioned in the agreement for sale but the respondent no. 1 agreed to pay the monthly EMI to the respondent no. 2 till the possession is given to the complainant. since it has stopped paying EMI from march,2019 the same can be taken as the date of possession, Hence the complainant, who is an allottee is entitled to seek relief under section 18 of the RERA and the refund sought by the complainant, under section 18 is justified.”
The Honourable tribunal further added that “ The respondent number 1 ( The builder) is further directed to deal with the bank under subvention scheme for the remaining amount payable to the respondent number 2 viz. ICICI bank as the complainant is not liable to pay anything to the respondent number 2.”
