Property Allotment Letters: Varieties and Legal Framework Unveiled!

An allotment letter is a document issued by a builder or developer to a buyer, confirming the purchase of a property. It is a legally binding document that outlines the terms and conditions of the sale, such as the price of the property, the payment terms, and the possession date.

There are two main types of allotment letters in India:

• Letter of Intent (LOI): This is a non-binding document that expresses the builder’s intent to sell the property to the buyer. The LOI is not a guarantee that the property will be sold, and the buyer is not obligated to purchase the property.
• Letter of Allotment: This is a binding document that confirms the sale of the property to the buyer. The letter of allotment is a legal contract, and both the buyer and the builder are legally bound by its terms.

The legal format of an allotment letter in India is as follows:

• The letter should be addressed to the buyer by name and address.
• The letter should state the name of the property, the location of the property, and the unit number (if applicable).
• The letter should state the price of the property and the payment terms.
• The letter should state the possession date.
• The letter should state the terms and conditions of the sale, such as the buyer’s right to cancel the purchase and the builder’s right to forfeit the buyer’s deposit.
• The letter should be signed by an authorized representative of the builder.

The allotment letter is an important document that should be carefully reviewed by both the buyer and the builder before it is signed. The letter should be kept safe and should be produced if there are any disputes about the sale of the property.

Here are some of the important terms and conditions that should be included in an allotment letter:

• The name and address of the buyer and the builder.
• The name of the property and the location of the property.
• The unit number (if applicable).
• The price of the property.
• The payment terms.
• The possession date.
• The buyer’s right to cancel the purchase.
• The builder’s right to forfeit the buyer’s deposit.
• Other terms and conditions that are agreed upon by the buyer and the builder.

Note: The allotment letter is a legally binding document, and it is important to make sure that all of the terms and conditions are clear and understood by both parties before it is signed. If there are any questions or concerns, it is best to consult with a lawyer.
