Gurugram bench of Haryana Real Estate Regulatory (HARERA) has issued notice to freeze all accounts associated with real estate firm Mahira Infratech. Mahira Infratech, formerly known as Sai Aaina Farms Pvt Ltd, was developing an affordable group housing colony over an area of approximately 10 acres in sector 68. HARERA Chairman KK Khandelwal said, ''We asked the bank to freeze the account of the company so that hard-earned money of innocent buyers can't be siphoned off to other purposes by the company.

''Many people have parked their funds and invested their stakes in the project, which is not ready to take off, so the company bank accounts were frozen to safeguard the interest of the buyers,'' Khandelwal said.

The authority has also directed the lead district manager to furnish the details of bank accounts associated with the promoters.

Earlier this month, the Department of Town and Country Planning (DTCP) passed an order to cancel the license of the project, citing grave violations by the developer, and requested HARERA to freeze the account of the company with immediate effect.
