The case was registered on July 31, 2015, in compliance of a July 27, 2015 order passed by a Delhi court, on the complaint of Delhi residents Arun Bedi and his mother Urmila Bedi. They had alleged that they were induced by the firm to book a flat in August 2011, in the residential project named ‘Wild Flowers Country’ in Gurugram, for a total consideration of Rs 57.34 lakhs. They had alleged that after passage of the given period, the builder had not delivered the possession, adding that the firm, in connivance with others, cheated the public at large.
Later, 90 more complaints were received against the firm for the same project, which were clubbed with the present FIR. The police claimed that around Rs 363 crores was collected by the firm, of which over Rs 35 crores was received from 91 complainants who were part of the present complaint.
