However, it has been the experience that many promoters (Builders/Developers) have not conveyed the land and building to the legal bodies. The Promoter (Builder/ Developer) is legally required to convey the land and the building within 4 months of formation to the society or any legal body of the flat purchasers. This amendment allows society owners to gain the legal rights of the land even if the builder is not willing to transfer the rights, in front of the designated competent authority. This amendment is called Deemed Conveyance. Therefore, the government has amended the Maharashtra Ownership Flats Act, 1963 (MOFA), to make sure if builders runway from such responsibilities the societies do not suffer.
