Threat of Resumption and Forfeiture of HUDA Plots in Gurgaon looms over the plot owners who have outstanding dues, payable to HUDA.

It is no secret that Haryana Urban Development Authority (HUDA) is under severe cash crunch and that is why HUDA is exploring all options to extract it outstanding dues from the allottees.

In first move HUDA issued letter to the Plot Allottees to get the pending Conveyance deed executed so that allottees by doing so will clear their dues. This efforts did not reap good returns.

Now, HUDA has decided to go all out in its look out for money. This time it has started issuing notices to HUDA Plot owners who have outstanding amount due onto them towards HUDA. The said notices are for Resumption and Forfeiture of HUDA Plots u/s 17 (1) of HUDA Act which says "Where any transferee makes default in the payment of any consideration money, or any installment, on account of the sale of any land or building or both u/s 15, the Estate Officer by Notice in writing call upon the transferee to show cause within a period of thirty days, why a penalty, which shall not exceed Ten per cent of the amount due from the transferee , be not imposed  upon him."

This notice is major cause of concerns for those living in or having plots in Sector-27, Sector-28, Sector-42, Sector-43, Sector-51, Sector-52 & Sector-57 as these sector HUDA has imposed hefty Enhancement Cost after allotment on the pretext of payment to farmers. Huge number of owners living in these sectors are failing to pay the atrocious enhancement cost.

It is a definitely a cause of worry as Notice u/s 17(1) of HUDA Act is just initiation of process for Resumption and Forfeiture of plots.
