PARVATHI A/P PERIAKARUPPAN v AMALAN SETAR (M) SDN. BHD.
Catchwords
1. This case concerns a dispute between a purchaser and a developer. They had entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement for the purchase of a double-storey house in Rawang. 2. After the developer obtained the requisite Certificate of Completion and Compliance, it duly issued a Notice to the purchaser to take vacant possession of the property. However, due to an inadvertent mix-up of addresses, the keys to the purchaser’s house were mistakenly handed over to a contractor tasked with renovation works intended for a different property. The purchaser was thus shocked to discover their house in a state of renovation, rendering it uninhabitable. 2. This led the purchaser into filing a claim against the developer in the Sessions Court claiming that vacant possession has not been delivered and thus she was entitled to liquidated damages and for damages for loss of use of the house (loss of rental). 3. The developer sought a declaration by way of a counterclaim that vacant possession was delivered on 26 February, 2020.
