Purva should try for some slowness award. Almost all of their projects are moving at snail pace.

Agreed.they do this with every one of their projects including the ones in Bangalore. It is a sort of a ponzi scheme where the payments from the customer are construction linked and construction is measured by number of floors made. So the developer gets interest free financing which can be used to buy land bank/ start other projects.

Aren't they liable to handover projects to the customers within a deadline?

In theory they are supposed to have penalties for late delivery but usually the agreements are so one sided that the customer gets something like 1.5-3% pa as penalty. The developer's borrowing cost from the market is anywhere between 12-20% pa. This means that it makes economic sense for the developer to delay delivery as he's saving a whooping 9-18.5 % pa.The only thing working against the developer is the inflation due to labour and material costs which keep going up every year but developers hope that the price of the units sold later would go up enough to compensate them on an average.Based on my knowledge, the average delay in delivery would not be less than 2 years from the original promised dates for a tier 1 developer (Unitech, DLF, Purva,Kalpataru, Lodha) . My guess is that it would be higher for tier 2 as they have been affected the most due to the high borrowing costs and slow economy.
