Uniform Builder Buyer Agreement (BBA) has been the demand of Indian home buyers for long. In the absence of it, while the home buyers were being harassed by the unscrupulous builders, the sector was at the receiving end of poor perception in the collective consciousness.

They continue to charge hefty amount in the name of society maintenance. Add ot it, revenue that they get from inflated power bills. After the registry of the apartment, majority of apartments buyers are free to form AOA (Apartment Owners’ Association).
