A property company sold plots in a project that was not registered with the real estate authority.
Two buyers complained that they had been told the project had all the necessary approvals.
They also said they were encouraged by claims that famous people had bought plots there.
Telangana’s real estate authority ordered the company to return more than Rs 42 lakh.
The company must also pay 10.70% yearly interest on the refundable amount.
The interest starts from June 7, 2022, when the buyers made their final payment.
