The National Buildings Construction Corporation (NBCC) on May 30 said that it is in the process of exploring various options that can be offered and negotiated under the 'settlement plan' with the allottees of the Greenview project in Gurgaon and appointing a transaction advisor to guide various other options in the matter.
As such, the physical possibility, legal permissibility and financial feasibility that may be intrinsic to the 'settlement plan' is in the process of evaluation by the Board and are also subject matters of various court cases which are pending before various forums, it said in a regulatory filing.
The GreenView condominium located in Sector 37 D, Gurugram was vacated after the building developed cracks and was declared unsafe for habitation in February this year.
The GreenView residents have been demanding a refund of the flat cost with 15 percent interest, registry charges, interior cost and a compensation of Rs 25 lakh for 'mental harassment'.
The company statement said that as per the structural audit, demolition of the building is the only way forward as restoration was deemed economically unviable.
"A committee of experts from IIT Roorkee and CBRI (Central Buildings Research Institute) Roorkee was constituted for structural assessment of this project. The expert committee opined that 'No repair/restoration method seems economically viable and safe in the long term. It is recommended to demolish the structure'. Further, a review panel of experts from CPWD was constituted which concurred with the recommendations given by the above expert committee i.e. to dismantle the structure," the company said in a regulatory filing.
