Supertech hasn't 'handed over' 200 flats, no OC obtained: Homebuyers

People who have bought homes at Supertech's Romano site here refuted the builder's claim that 200 flats were handed over to them last week, saying that only three or four families were given the keys.

Even these flats were handed over without the builders obtaining the occupancy certificate, the homebuyers' association said.

In a statement on Saturday, Supertech had said it "handed over as many as 200 flats in its Romano project to home buyers today".

Supertech Romano Homebuyers' Association, however, said the builders' claim is "untrue" and the project, which is delayed by over three years, is "far from livable".

Confronted with the homebuyers' rejoinder, a Supertech spokesperson said on Tuesday that keys were handed over to 20 buyers.

But all flats in Tower B2 are ready and other homebuyers have been sent a communication offering possession, the builders claimed.

Not everyone came on January 25 but we had invited all buyers on Tower B2 to take possession of their homes," the spokesperson claimed.

The spokesperson said the group has applied for the occupancy certificate for Tower B2 of its project located in Sector 118.

Earlier, the homebuyers' statement said, There are only 150 units in Tower B2 and not 200 as reported and on January 25 keys were given to only 3-4 buyers and not to 200 as reported."
