Punjab and Haryana HC Questions Software for Detecting Sham Realty Transactions

During recent proceedings, the court questioned the utility and accuracy of the software being used to identify sham transactions. The judges emphasised the need for robust technology that can reliably flag suspicious activities and prevent financial fraud in real estate dealings.

The software in question is intended to assist regulatory bodies and authorities in monitoring and addressing fraudulent practices within the real estate market. However, the court's concerns highlight the necessity for thorough vetting and validation of such tools to ensure their efficacy.

By demanding detailed explanations and improvements to the software, the court aims to strengthen measures against unethical practices and enhance the integrity of real estate transactions.

As the legal and regulatory landscape evolves, the development and implementation of effective technology solutions will be crucial in safeguarding the real estate market from fraudulent activities. The court's focus on this issue reflects its commitment to promoting fair and transparent practices in the industry.
