(III)Order on the Note dated 01-08-2024 of learned Court Receiver: -

(i) The learned Court Receiver has submitted his Note dated 01-08-2024 pursuant to the order passed by this Court on 11-07-2024 and prayed for following directions: -

"1. To Noida and Greater Noida Authorities to comply with the order dated 29.03.2023 of this Hon'ble Court by granting clearance and by sanctioning the drawings of each respective project submitted by NBCC through the Receiver within 10 days.

2. To Noida and Greater Noida Authorities to not demand any other payments such as lease rent or old land dues or additional compensation at this point of time or demand any documentation apart from the payment towards additional FAR for the sanctioning of the drawings.

3. To Noida and Greater Noida authorities to provide requisite clearance for OC and CC for the projects, where construction has been completed, within 15 days from the date of submission of documents for certificates.

4. To the Greater Noida and Noida Authority to provide water connections to the projects where home buyers are about to take the possession of the units.

5. To NBCC to appoint maintenance agency wherever required, and handover the maintenance of the project to the Adhoc AOA or regular AOA within a period of 60 days of completion.

6. All home buyers shall contribute Rs.10/sq.ft. a corpus fund and one year maintenance in advance to ensure proper maintenance of the project.

7. All home buyers shall pay the maintenance charges as may be intimated to them, in terms of the expenses towards appointment of maintenance agencies.

8. With respect to pending I.A's, may Registry coordinate for the listing of I.A's with the Nodal Officer Mr. Kumar Mihir, Advocate on Record and the Office of Court Receiver so that pending I.A's shall be addressed on time."

(ii) The learned Senior counsel – Mr. Siddhartha Dave appearing for National Building Construction Corporation (NBCC) has also submitted the affidavit dated 25-07-2024 in connection with the said order dated 29-03-2023 passed by this Court and prayed for the following directions: -

"a) Necessary orders and direction may kindly be passed directing Noida & Gr. Noida Authority to sanction the drawings within a period of 10 days as submitted by NBCC through the Ld. Court Receiver vide letters dated 11.04.2023 and 12.04.2023.

b) Pass such other and further orders from this Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper in the facts and circumstances of the present case."

(iii) The learned Senior counsel – Mr. Ravindra Kumar appearing for the Noida and the Greater Noida Authorities has sought to rely upon one affidavit prepared on 24-04-2023 affirmed by one Mr. Vineet Mishra, the then Deputy Collector of the Noida, which was sought to be filed in the Office through e-mail day before yesterday, without serving copy thereof to the learned Court Receiver or the counsel for the NBCC, containing certain facts which prima facie appear to be inaccurate and incorrect. Hence, the said affidavit is not permitted to be relied upon. It is very unfortunate that though the directions were given by this Court as back as on 29-03-2023 and non-compliance thereof was also observed in the order dated 11-07-2024, there is no response from any responsible officer of the Noida and Greater Noida Authorities, with regard to the said directions. This Court therefore takes a serious note of such non-compliance by the Noida and Greater Noida Authorities.

(iv) It is sought to be submitted by the learned Court Receiver as also the learned Senior counsel – Mr. Siddhartha Dave appearing for NBCC that the learned Court Receiver using his good offices had made certain correspondences with the said Authorities in connection with the pending issues, particularly of the FAR, however, there is no cooperation or

22

proper response received from the said Authorities.

(v) In view of the above, let the concerned Chief Executive Officers of the Noida and of the Greater Noida Authorities file their respective responses on affidavit with regard to:

(1) the compliance of the directions issued by this Court in the order dated 29-03-2023;

(2) the Note submitted by the learned Court Receiver dated 01-08-2024 particularly with regard to the directions nos. 1 to 4 sought in the said Note;

(3) the affidavit dated 25-07-2024 filed on behalf of NBCC; and

(4) the issue of unused FAR as well as the purchasable FAR,

within one week from today with an advance copy thereof to be served to the learned Court Receiver, to the learned Senior counsel Mr. Dave for the N.B.C.C. and also to the other concerned counsels, so that they may file their responses in a week thereafter.

(vi) Let the concerned CEOs of both the Authorities remain present before this Court on the next date of hearing with all the relevant information and documents.

List on 14-08-2024 at 2.00 p.m.
