The rain was relentless over Kollur, but inside her small apartment, Sneha held a piece of paper that finally brought a ray of sun. It was an official order from the Telangana Real Estate Regulatory Authority (TG RERA)—a declaration of victory after a long, grueling fight against a developer who had taken her savings and given back only empty promises.
It all started in late 2021 when Sneha signed an Agreement of Sale with M/s. EVK Projects Pvt. Ltd. for a 2BHK flat in a project named EVK Avasa. Handing over ₹9,36,000 of her hard-earned money, she was promised that her new home would be ready within 36 months. The developer assured her that work was moving swiftly and that the balance payment would only be due once official RERA approvals were secured.
Months blurred into years, but the construction site remained silent. Where a modern apartment complex was supposed to rise, there was only empty land. Every call to the developer’s office met evasive answers and endless delays. Frustrated by the lack of progress and total absence of transparent communication, Sneha realized her dream home was slipping away into a maze of unkept promises.
Refusing to be silent, Sneha filed a complaint with TG RERA. Even as the developer ignored official notices and failed to show up in court, the Authority carefully examined the evidence. The legal ruling was clear: a homebuyer cannot be forced to wait indefinitely while a promoter fails to fulfill basic statutory obligations.
On August 27, 2026, the Bench ruled decisively in Sneha's favor. TG RERA ordered M/s. EVK Projects Pvt. Ltd. to refund her entire principal amount with an annual interest rate of 10.70% within 30 days. Beyond delivering justice for Sneha, the Authority ordered an official investigation into the unregistered EVK Avasa project, sending a clear message across the region that homebuyer rights under the law are non-negotiable.
