RIL, has, however, said it is waiting for further communication from MMRDA as there was a court stay for almost five years on construction on plot no C/64. A report from The Hindu quoted RIL spokesperson as saying, “MMRDA had recognised the force majeure with regards to Plot Number C/64, as there was a court stay on construction between October 2007 and March 2012. MMRDA, in the last authority meeting, decided to appoint a committee and we are awaiting further communication from it on the same.”  The Total Investment & Insurance Solutions

Galgali, in a letter to Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, has demanded the recovery with interest within 30 days from these entities. "If the amount is not recoverable then, it should immediately take the possession of the plot and once again re-alot it to the highest bidder, which will bring revenue to the MMRDA and will help in initiating public development activities," the RTI activist had said in the letter.
