At the Aura County Signature project in Wagholi (developer Om Sai Homes), buyers Siddharth and Rita Gandhi booked Flat 803 in January 2020 for Rs 38 lakh and paid Rs 25 lakh, with possession promised for December 2021. The developer never registered the sale agreement or delivered possession – and instead sold the same flat to a third party via a registered agreement in January 2022.
MahaRERA ruled that it could not evict the legitimate third-party buyer, but ordered the developer to revive the stalled project, complete statutory compliances, and allot the original buyers an equivalent unit of the same carpet area, crediting their Rs 25 lakh payment. Their separate compensation claim was referred to the Adjudicating Officer.
Wagholi sits squarely in Pune’s eastern growth corridor, which makes this a useful buyer-education case: always verify that your sale agreement is actually registered – not just signed – and keep proof of every payment. The order is also a reminder that RERA exists for precisely this scenario: a booked home cannot simply be sold out from under a paying buyer without consequences.
