The saga began in May 2015, when two homebuyers bought a flat for Rs 1.75 crores under Vijay Group’s Victory Platinum project in Kandivali, Mumbai. They were promised possession by December of that year. However, the deadline was later pushed to March 2016 and then to March 2020. The delay was not agreeable to the buyers, who sought a refund. In 2019, the two entered a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the developer, who agreed to buy back the flat at Rs 3.15 crores, including interest.
