Karnataka RERA tribunal on Sept. 7, 2026 ordered a Bengaluru builder to deliver two disabled parking spaces to a Rs 1.03 crore 3BHK buyer, citing a breach of the project’s environmental clearance.
The buyer, a mother of two, purchased the unit on Aug 6, 2024 after the builder promised dedicated spots in the brochure and a December 2023 email.
Yet the builder has not formed an association of allottees and has been collecting maintenance fees without audited accounts, prompting the buyer’s appeal.
RERA invoked Clause 32 of the Karnataka environmental clearance, which mandates ramps and separate parking for persons with disabilities, and ruled that the builder is legally bound to comply.
The tribunal’s order compels the builder to install the spaces within 60 days, establish the association, and submit audited maintenance statements after the occupancy certificate is issued.
The buyer, who had already paid an extra ₹5 lakh for the promised spot, says she will now seek compensation for the inconvenience and will monitor the builder’s compliance closely.
