Considering the size of transactions, consumers in this field require a solid legal framework to protect themselves from fraud, delays, and other malpractices. The legal environments of the Indian and UK real estate industries represents two extremely different legal scenarios. This study analyses consumer rights and remedies in real estate transactions in the United Kingdom and India, taking into account enforcement efforts, judicial trends, and legislative frameworks. The study's goal is to analyze the consumer protection regulations and propose measures for increasing consumer trust in real estate markets. It examines regulatory frameworks, legal clarity, dispute resolution processes, and reforms in the real estate transactions. The consumer rights, buyer-builder contract, rights of homebuyers during insolvency of the real estate builder are also compared considering the real estate industry's rising corporate crisis in India. At the end, suggestions are made for cross-border harmonisation of best practices for improving consumer protection in the real estate market in India.</p> Ms. Khyati Nayak Prof. Dr. Kondaiah Jonnalagadda Copyright (c) 2025 Justice and Law Bulletin 2025-06-02 2025-06-02 3 2 1 16 https://www.apricusjournals.com/index.php/jus-l-bulletin/article/view/280 <p><em>Land and family property disputes constitute a significant proportion of cases in Indian courts, yet they are often interpreted primarily as outcomes of legal inefficiencies. This paper argues that such disputes are better understood through a socio-legal framework that conceptualises property not merely as a legal asset but as an institution, a set of practices, an object, and an idea embedded in social relations. The intersection of kinship structures, gendered patterns of succession, and administrative practices produces complex and protracted arenas of litigation. Drawing on a case study of an urban family property dispute adjudicated in the district court of Saket, New Delhi, the paper illustrates how legal entitlements are deeply entangled with social relationships. It further examines the role of property records as instruments of power that contribute to the reproduction of social inequalities. By bridging legal analysis with sociological insights, the paper highlights the need to reconceptualise property disputes beyond procedural and institutional limitations.</em></p> <p><em>&nbsp;</em></p> Ms. Tulika Sharma Copyright (c) 2025 Justice and Law Bulletin 2026-04-08 2026-04-08 3 2 17 26
