I bought a VEFA property. My apartment was to be delivered at the end of October 2019. Delivery has been pushed back to the end of October 2020. Can I ask him to pay me compensation for this delay?

Yes, you can claim late delivery penalties or damages from your developer, if the delay causes you prejudice (e.g., rental of a storage unit for your furniture, accommodation costs, etc.). However, your promoter may not be held liable if there is a legitimate reason (bad weather, late delivery of materials, etc.) for postponing delivery.
