Legal Remedies for Non-Development of Project and Non-Payment of Profit/Rental by Developer.
I purchased a residential villa from a reputed developer and entered into an Agreement to Sell / Agreement of Contract with them. Under the terms of the agreement, the developer undertook to complete the project within a specified period and also committed to pay a fixed rental return.
However, the developer has failed to complete the project within the agreed timeframe and has also defaulted in paying the promised rental amount. I have now been informed that the developer is facing certain issues in the project, which has caused significant delays.
In these circumstances, I seek legal advice on the following:
1. What remedies are available to me under the agreement and the applicable laws of Pakistan, including the Contract Act 1872 and the Specific Relief Act 1877?
2. Am I entitled to claim refund of the amount paid along with damages and unpaid rental returns?
3. Can I enforce the agreement and compel the developer to complete the project and hand over possession?
4. What would be the most appropriate legal course of action in this situation (civil suit, consumer complaint, or any other remedy)?
