A decade after tall promises, flats booked in Hyderabad construction project yet to 'appear'

It has been more than a decade since customers in Hyderabad decided to buy a flat by construction giant Aliens Group as part of the Space Station 1 project in Gachibowli. Though they were promised skyscrapers, the customers allege that they have been 'cheated', as the project is already five years overdue and a series of complications have sprung up. A large number of people have been running from pillar to post, filing cases in police stations and consumer courts, and accusing the senior management of the Aliens Group including the managing director Hari Challa of fraud. "Many people have lost hope of seeing their 'new house'. We are tired of long-winding court cases and police cases. One month ago, 104 people moved the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, seeking to put an end to this problem," says Alok Kumar Shukla, an IT professional, who is also the treasurer of the Aliens Space Station 1 Owners’ Welfare Associa...

We had booked a dream flat in Aliens SS1 soon after our wedding in 2008 with a hope of occupying the same in 2011. Now, in 2015, we are learning that the station itself is not included in their list either for Phase 1 or 2. No one answers providing a date for completion in the long future as well. We have sold out all our investments paying the EMIs to SBI since 2008. Additionally, the increasing rental value is also killing us to the core as we end up paying twice - once to SBI and the other to the flat owner.All the communication from Aliens group is literally stopped when we opposed to pay that EXTRA amount which was being charged towards value enhancements of the property which is not even in any stage of completion in the near future. We have dried out our blood following up with the Aliens management but they have given us nothing other than a cold response.  Our family life is completely shatterred with the kind of mental pressure we are undergoing every moment...

Aliens Space station Customer Funds Invested in Other Projects

Diversion of Funds Investors advance funds has been diverted to Aliens sister companies and to other unknown sources and didn’t mentioned in their balance sheets also. Appeal   Many customers who booked the flats have taken loans from various banks and are paying their EMIs. All of them are finding it extremely difficult to pay the rent and a high EMI towards nothing. There is no progress in sight and there are rumours that builder has already decided not to do phase 2 and 3 at all. Please note that phase 2 was scheduled to be completed by mid 2012 and phase 3 by mid 2013. At one point there were about 1400 customers. After generating such a huge initial payment of Rs 300 crore or higher, the builder has chosen to make very little progress. Evidently they have diverted the funds to other areas and acquired huge pieces of land elsewhere. The builders are threatening and bullying the customers and have also challenged many to do what they can. The builders first identifi...

Aliens Spacestation Tellapur sold Same Flat to multiple Customers

Cancellation: The cancellation policy is heavily lopsided and even if the delay is completely due to mismanagement of the builder, a customer is forced to apply for a cancellation, forced to forego up to 20% of the paid amount and then made to wait for a year to get his money back in small installments. This is outright cheating. Many customers who realized that the Aliens Group is intentionally doing the fraud, by taking the advance amount, without doing any construction, approached Aliens Group to return back the money. Aliens Group announced a payment term policy and asked Owners to cancel their flats by themselves. Assuming that Aliens Group will return back the money, around 600 customers had cancelled their flats by themselves. Below are some of their words. 1) Sadia Begum - This is sadia flat no 1033 station 6. Cancelled the Flat last year 2014 June but no return money. Last Saturday we had a discussion with aliens and they are saying directly that they don't h...
