Bahria Town,

Thursday, November 29, 2012 05:20 AM 

Hi - I'm an overseas Pakistani. I purchased a plot in E sector Johar Block after paying all installments in BT Lahore office last month.

Now after one month - when i called they informed only 1 installment with down payment is clear.although I've all documents with me but yet want to know the following.

is there any fraud chances in Bahria Town ?

Transformation to other person is only done after paying all the installments - is this correct ?

as I'm out of county what steps should i take ?

ear Ali Raza Sahib,
It is may be due the reason that IT department has not updated the status of your plot. If you have all the documents (specially payment receipts) with you, then there is nothing to worry about. You or some one on your behalf can get the record corrected by visiting Bahria Town office. You will be asked to provide the documentary proof of payments.
Please get the final account statement when the issue is resolved. If they have imposed any fine or surcharge due to non payment, get it waived off as it is Bahria Town's official fault. If you will not get it corrected now then you may face problems when selling or getting the possession of your plot.
No one can give any guarantee about Bahria Town or any other organization. Generally this kind of frauds are not found in Bahria Town so don't be upset in this regard.
Yes, Transfer of plot is only done when all previous dues are clear - Meaning all the due installments are paid.
As you are out of country, some one on your behalf can clear every thing so remain satisfied. It is not a big issue at all.

dear ALI RAZA, mr.hussain kaisrani is right.if you have all receipts(original)then no need of worry.

No need to worry, take all the receipts to Bahria office and they will update the records and give you most recent statement showing no penalty. It happened to me also.

I never had any issues with BT in past...U will be ok ...just talk to them and get the records updated :)

after sending the scanned copies of the payment. they updated the system. but now they put some surcharge of like 35k. need to really send someone to know this science.

other party delayed the instalment and it may be due to that. but it was cleared by other party when was transferred to my name. also, transformation is only done when all dues are clear.

why it is like this, any feedback from you guys ?

Ali Raza Sahib,
I have already mentioned this in my reply to your post.
It is due to the reason that (AS PER BAHRIA RECORD) the installments were not paid in time. The system automatically keeps on put surcharge on daily basis.
You have sent BT office the receipts copies and your record is updated BUT the guy on system can not remove the surcharge by himself. It needs to adopt a certain process which also includes a written application and approval signatures of concerned authority.
If you do not get it waved off, the surcharge on surcharge will be applied. And if due to some reason Bahria Town changes its policy NOT to waive off the surcharge then you will be in difficulty when selling or getting the possession. And if due to some reason the surcharge is waived off without adopting the proper procedure then it will also remain there and will appear at the time of transfer.
Please get a final statement when you get the surcharge waived off. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT.
