NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Friday said that the home buyers of the to-be-razed 40-storey twin-towers of real estate firm Supertech in Noida will be refunded the full amount deposited with the builder. The apex court also asked the Interim Resolution Professional (IRP) of the firm, facing insolvency proceedings, to deposit Rs 1 crore with the apex court registry. The Supertech’s 40-storey twin towers at Emerald Court Project of Sector 93A of Noida are scheduled to be razed on August 28.

A bench of Justices DY Chandrachud, AS Bopanna, and JB Pardiwala said that the home buyers of twin powers will get their total refund but for the time being, they will be paid from Rs 1 crore, which will be deposited by the IRP by September 30.  The top court was hearing a batch of contempt petitions filed by home buyers seeking a refund as per the last year’s order of the court.
