Dear Sir, We are living in a Chakan, Pune. In our Apartment there are 108 flats and all are sold out. The construction is of 2009 and till Builder has not handed over the Society to us. We have formed our Ad Hoc committee and running society from last 06 months. Up-till all common electricity meters are on the name of Builder. But the bill of some of the metres has not submitted by Builder, and the MSEB bill for this meters is around 5 Lac rs. So we are not able to pay this bill and MSEB has cut our common amenities electricity meters. When contacted to Builder no proper response has given.
We are literally in frustration, pls tell what to do?

Regards!

MA Car — Nuisance in Society

MA CAR Dealers, a nuisance in Oshiwara Windermere

Spare us...the pain MA Car is not only a nuisance to the society, a prestigious Residensial socielty...but also to the road, traffic and the entire area.

BMC, RTO...someone stop these arrogant youngsters running this Car accesories outlet from running as late as 1 am.

Parking vehicles in the entire lane ...

Playing loud music

repairing cars on the road with no parking space left for by passers or other shoppers.

A troubled citizen

Pl let me know that can the society ask to pay in advance maintenance amount i.e before 30 march of the financial year say in April itself ?

It's perfect as the Member who reside may be for some reason would not be in a position to pay the dues. Being it's housing Society charging interest on the member should be avoided or has to be very nominal for the caution. If the same member constantly make late payment he should be informed about it.Monthly maintenance charges has to be on time where as if Society takes some repair work and does not complete to the satisfaction of any individual member ( his/her flat getting damaged due to the repair work outside building ) then the so called committee should take responsibility and discuss the issues with that member and settle the dispute. if not it will drag on.

Our request to you sir is can a Society abnormally charge RI (21% Compound Interest even though in a General Body Meeting it's approved for SI ) on an individual residing Member. As mentioned above, the member decide to pay in one go to settle all his dues if he is not charged interest/ a very nominal amount as penalty. It clearly shows his interest of making payment to the Society. Kindly suggest. Thanks.

Socity can not charge compound interest, only simple interest can be charged.

Society can charge upto 3% penal charges over and above normal rate of interest

I am facing same problem, people in society do interior and throw all debris below my window, writing to society commitee has done nothing about it. Whats law for it and where can i complain for the same... Please let me know.

You may complaint to the registrar of the co-operative Societies, the Ward Officer of Municipal Co-operation.

Builder — Builder problems in a housing society

Hi,

I have bought a 2BHK flat in Jan 2005 in a society of 50 flats and 20 shops. Till now builder has sold only 10 shops and 25 flats.

As per the agreement, builder was supposed to give the possesion in Aug 2006. We checked the status of building every month since Jan 2005. The building was 90% complete in Apr 2006. But since then builder slowed down the work in building.

Everytime we asked for the possesion date after Aug 2006, he started stating that he is not getting the Completion Certificate from Navi Mumbai Muncipal Corporation (NMMC). Till Jan 2008, he delayed the possesion. And in Feb 2008, he asked the flat owners that if you need the possesion, you need to pay Rs 72.5 per sq.ft extra and also you need to sign the indemnity bond where by he can sell the open parking. Now he is asking for Rs 1.5 Lakh for car parking and Rs 50K for scooter parking.

Builder has not given us the Completion Certificate from NMMC. When I enquired with the NMMC officials over the phone, they told me that your builder had not submitted all the papers. When I told the same to builder, he told us that NMMC officials are lying and he had submitted all the papers.

One more issue is I gave my flat on rent recently as I stay in Pune. My builder started asking for Rs 1 per sq. ft maintenance charges for the flat as I have given it on rent. Whereas I have given Rs 2 per sq. ft maintenance charges for a year already to him while taking a possesion of the flat.

I want to know -
1) Can builder sell the open parking?
2) What should be the maintenance charges for a flat given it on rent?
3) What is the step to get the completion certificate?


Regards,
Raj

Personal — maintenance works to be carried out

Sir,

I have been allotted Accn No 161, Sector 1, RK Puram, recently. The condition of the quarter is very poor/shabby. Necessary repairs/maintenance are required to be undertaken to make the quarter habitate. Your instructions on the subject to the concerned authorities are highly obliged.

we are having a water lickage from the flat above us and he is not willing to repair the same
kindly let us know what legal action we can take against him

register a complaint with secretary of the society. mention that under section 48(a), (b) the society should act. it is clearly mentioned in this section 48 that the secretary alongwith one committee member shall inspect the flat from where the leakage is occuring and shall give notice to the concerned flat owner to carry out repairing work in a stipulated time. if the concerned member fails to carry out repairing work, then the society shall carry out the work and recover expenses from the concerned member.
also write that u will take action against the society as well as committee if they fail to act u/s 48. it is now committee members personal responsibility to look in to the matter or they will have to pay you damages because the new bonds to be submitted (M-20 forms) by the committee members hold them personally responsible.

I HAVE ONE QUERRY REGARDING CO.OPERATIVE HSG. SOCIETY. IF MEMBER IS HAVING TWO FLATS AT SAME FLOOR BOTH ARE ADJUSENT. WHILE RENOVATION AND REPAIRING FLATS CAN OWNER OF TWO FLATS PERMANANTLY CLOSE MAIN DOOR OF THE ONE FLAT. IS THIS ACT IS LEGALY VOID

we shop ownwers want to know that in a shopping cum residential building is there a law that shop owners should pay commercial water charges likely for 2 to3 buckets for drinking water daily.

I have taken possession on Jun 2004 in newly constructed complex. Some of complex member came together & started proposed co-operative society. Up to March end 2011 builder is handling maintenance & all complex related expenditures & same is taking from all flat owners. From April 2011 builder requested to proposed committee members to take charges of all complex related expenditures. Till date we do not have registered co-operative society.

Up to September 2009 there was not a single problem in my flat. From September 2009 there was leakage started in our lobby from slab. I called builder person & asked to rectify the same. They tried but leakage not stopped. After some time leakage started I my one bedroom & then after second one.
I am writhing mails with photographs to builder saying to rectify all leakages from September 2009 & also having face to face meeting with top most person of builder. After long mailing & meeting with builder, they have tried to rectify from below slab but they have not able to stop the leakage. At the end they said this rectification work of leakage to be done from above us flat bathroom.

I have also given mail (3 Times) to proposed committee members

Builder gone to that flat owner & requested them to give permission to work in their bathroom, but that flat owner not allowing builder to work in their bathroom.

Please let me know what should I do as legal.

I AM A ONWER OF A FLAT IN MUMBAI HOUSING SOCEITY.MY FLAT IS ON THE TOP FLOOR OF THE BUILDING. THERE IS LEAKAGE IN THE CEILING FROM THE TERRACE. I HAD JUST PAINTED AND RENOVATED MY FLAT . THE PAINT HAS PEELED OUT DUE TO DAMPNESS AND MY FURNITURE HAS ALSO SPOILED. I AM PAYING REGULAR MAINTAINANCE OF MY FLAT. I HAVE MADE WRITTEN COMPLAINTS TO THE SOCEITY BUT THEY ARE NOT CARRING OUT REPAIRS ON THE TERRACE FLOOR WHICH HAS BECOME SOFT AND WATER IS GOING INSIDE THE GAPS INTO OUR FLAT. IS THE SOCEITY RESPONSIBLE TO MAINTAIN THE TERRACE AND BLOCK THE LEAKAGE ? CAN I STOP THE MAINTAIANCE OF MY FLAT TO THE SOCEITY..AND WHERE SHOULD I COMPLAINT NEXT AS PER LAW.

I have been following many posts pertaining to water leakages in apartments from the terraces located above the same apartments as also from apartment bathrooms and toilets.

Taking the legal route for solutions can be a long and arduous journey, especially in our courts. It is tantamount to sitting on the problem while the water seeping into the structure does all the harm. Consequently, the structure’s integrity suffers and repairing these damages could cost a fortune.

We have a QUICK, PERMANENT & ECONOMICAL’ solution for these types of leakages which is a win-win proposition for all those who are affected by such problems.

We specialise in repairing dripping and seeping leakages from the above flats by working from the lower flat ceiling itself. No breaking or demolition of Tiles, Floorings and Ceramic ware - No disturbance and no mess job - Life-long guarantee - No more bitterness among neighbours - Peace and harmony with all.

Repairs completed in 5 hours.

Unjust Water Leakage Charges from flat owners by Cooperative housing society Ltd

The water leakage rule made by the MC of this society doesn't involve the duty of the secretary or the responsible authorities.. but it involves the watchman visiting the flat for inspection. The MC has levied exhorbitabnt charges (Rs. 2500) without any confirmation from the flat owner and witohut any visit to the flat by the committe member.
The flat owner also called for a plumber and no leakage was found by the plumber.. however, the MC is not ready to listen and is still going ahead with the fine stating that the Watchman's visit to the flat (no inspection done by the watchman whatsoever) alone will be considered as the proof.
What can be done against the Managing committee/ Secretary in this case.

i am getting a same problem as above i.e leakage of slab of kitchen during monsoon as well there is leakage through wall of bed room.

please led me know how hall mark solution can solve this problem and also give me details of clause or co-operative society act by which i can demand repair from society

thank you

I am the secretary of our society. There is groupism in soceity. Fed up off these I lost eagerness to continue in the soceity and I decided quit in this AGM. Chairman of the soceity by mingling with other members wanted to illegally extend their hall till building duct. I am opposing this. But 3 days back chairman illegally did the same thing. He illegally extended the hall upto duct. I am sure many more others will follow him. Please give me some solution so that I can take action against chairman and make him pay the price for this illegal act

thanks

I am staying at Andheri, D.N. Nagar, New Texprocil CHS Ltd.

The building watchman has informed me that The Secretary's wife has directed them not to talk only to me and my family in the whole society and defaming us. Why at all defame me in the society before the watchman who is a temporary employee. I am a sick person and senior citizen and sometimes I may need help of the watchman when I am alone in the house. They have informed me that because of the Secretary's wife's threaten they are scared to talk to us. I am also not aware as to any resolution has been passed by the Committee Members or in the AGM.Please guide me where should I complain since I am a bonafide member of this society and watchman is the employee. Even the salary of the watchman is paid from my share of the society's maintenance.

Please write a letter to the Chairman / Secretary of your society informing about the incidence, Inform the same to the registrar of the co-operative societies, commissioner of police and further if nothing happens then you need to move to court and file case for defamation.

we have a secretary who has resigned in between the term. can we appoint new secretary without AGM. Also have sent circular stating that watchman will not open gate. can society make such irrational rules..

Service charges means repair fund, sinking fund, sweeper, security, gardener, society manager and legal advisor.

Electricity and water bills comes under expenses accounts. It should be charged to each wing seperately according to their bills. Lift maintenance and repair same each wing seperately if one does not use lift also.

The service charges are to be equally divided. they are: Light bill, watchmen/sweeper/gardner's salary, Insurance, lift maintenance, accounting fee etc.
Non occupancy charge shouold be 10% of the service charge.
Sinking fund is to be claculated at the rate of 0.25% of the total construction cost and to be divided by buil up area of the flats/shops & repair and maintenance fund with the rate of 0.75%.
water charge to be calculated to number of inlets provided to the flat/shop from outside.

Dear Sir
Please clarify, May a housing society charge service tax on water charges bill provided to their members if bill is below of Rs.3000/- P.A.
Kindly mention registration code & head .

Thanks
Regards
Vinod Verma

Please let me know that Non occupancy charges of 10 % should be paid in sinking and repairing funds also . Or only on Maintenance charges (Excluding sinking & Repairing fund).

Please reply.

vidya

can the repair fund or sinking fund be used for major repairs or replacement of lifts

The service charges should be uniform where the house sizes are uniform.
For dissimilar sizes, say 800, 1000, 1500 & more sq ft, the logic of charging same maintenance charges does not hold water.

The purchase price of these flats are differnt based on the area, the house tax is different again based on the area, the area is the determining factor.

The bigger house is normally for a bigger size family and that's why larger sum is paid for the extended facility to faciltate use by an extended number of members.

To say that it shoud be uniform irrespective of size of the Flat is to rob Peter to pay for Paul's luxurious living. Highly unreasonable, unjustified and discriminatory.

my socty charging extra 500-rs.per month for taking home tution at home, as left is used by stduent. pl help me. as i m oppose to it.

1. Refusal to allow entry in to the building :

I Mr. R.B. Popat was refused to allow entry on 04.10.2010 in to the building by Mr. Sandip Velhal and One Watch man on duty @ 10.30 A.M. in the morning. Thereafter, I went to Jurisdictional Kidwai Nagar Police Station and lodged NC vide NC No. 1924110 dtd. 04.10.2010.

2. Manipulation of Minutes :

(a) This is to inform your goodself that in the last AGM my wife had signed attendance sheet stating that she object to the removal of name from membership by her. However, when we received minutes it was stated that my wife has agreed to the resolution of removal of name from membership. In order to prove manipulation of minutes we had asked through letter cum notice dated 27th March, 2010 of our Advocate Shri Vinod Sampat to give us certified copy of the 2009, AGM Attendance sheet which was not given till to date by the said society. However, in reply to our Advocate the society stated that they had given inspection to us which was also not given. Further in our Advocate’s letter cum notice what was asked for by us was copies of the several document but none of them is given to us.

3. (a) Allegation of Bazari Activity and removal of name :

The society has by alleging Bazari activity, removed our name from membership of society. However several time including through Two RTI and letters and even through letter cum notice dated 27th March, 2010 of our Advocate Shri. Vinod Sampat we asked for evidence of Bazari activity as alleged by the society, which are not received by us till to date.




(b) Right of cross examination :

We reserve our Right of cross examination of each person who voted against us and in favour of resolution of removal of name from membership of society and ask them to provide evidence of Bazari Activity.

(c) Not granting of hearing By the Asst. Registrar F south, Mumbai :

Not granting of hearing By the Asst. Registrar F south, Mumbai of hearing till to date on removal of our name from membership of the society. We are even not aware whether society has filed such resolution with the office of Asst. Registrar F south Mumbai.

4. Evasion of stamp duty and registration fee by Secretary :

The present Secretary Mr Anil Agnihotri has submitted application along with all record for deletion of his first name from Flat No. 302 certificate, which was accordingly being removed from the share certificate by virtue of application by him.

At that time Mr. R.B.Popat was secretary, Mr. Prabhu Desai was treasurer ( of Sameer) and Mrs. Amla Agnihjotri wife of Mr Anil Agnihotri was Chairperson. We all deleted the First name from the said certificate of flat no. 302 by making endorsement on the reverse side of the said share certificate of flat no. 302 and kept single name of Mrs. Amla Agnihotri on reverse side of the said flat 302 share certificate and all amendments were accordingly being carried out in share register.

This name was removed on application being made by Mr. Anil Agnihotri with all necessary papers on account of Notice from Income tax Delhi being received by him as was told to me by his wife at that time.

I heard from some one that again the society converted single named share certificate of Mrs. Amla A. Agnihotri to First name of Mr. Anil Agnihotri and second name of Mrs. Amla agnihotri.

Now, the issue is how come one can become secretary from flat no. 302 when the stamp duty and registration fee is not paid by them at both instances as narrated above.

We request concerned authorities [ collector of stamps ] to check payment of stamp duty and registration charges on both the above transaction and also on all immovable portion of Abhishek CHS Ltd. (building) including all stilt parking owned occupied by Mr. Agnihotri family.

5. Raising of false maintenance bills of Rs. 33000/- plus towards difference in car and scooter parking by alleging fraud by Mr. R. B. Popat :

It was abundantly proved that we have scooter parking as per Conveyance copy from builder to society which was part of registered agreement of our flat.

The society in reply from their advocate stated that the society has only one type of parking is also misleading information given by committee members to their advocate.

It is also abundantly clear that society has G parking for closed garage P parking for open garage which is further are of two type one is small which is for scooter parking and big for car parking as categorized in conveyance deed from builder to the society. Apart from that there are open parking for scooter ( two wheeler) and car parking for (four wheeler) for which different rates are being charged.

Society alleged that Mr. R.B. Popat has manipulated bill by charging less amount is also replied in Notice cum letter dated 27th March, 2010 of our Advocate Shri. Vinod Sampat’s. However The bill raised by Mr. R.B Popat was same as raised for immediately preceding month by Mr. Kambli ( ex-manager of the society ) who was manager of the society.

In order to prove all the facts detailed documents was called from Society vide letter dated 07.07.2009 And vide Two RTI application In the month of March, 2009 and reminder letter was filed with Asst Registrar Shri. B.D, Ahire for seeking information under RTI vide letter dated 11.06.2009 but no reply is received till to date. And also vide Notice cum letter dated 27th March, 2010 of our Advocate Shri. Vinod Sampat but till to date we received no reply from the society.

We reserve our right to file defamation suit against the committee members.

6. Non raising of regular maintenance bills :
Though, maintenance cheque for Quarter April 2009 to June 2009 was sent by Mr. R. B. Popat society returned the same by stating that the matter is under consideration and returned the cheque.

Further, vide letter dated 03.06.2009. It was intimated to society that the non issuance of maintenance bill by the society is leading to delay in receipt of payment by the society and interest cost shall be borne by the committee members, . But to the said letter they failed to reply.

The Asst. Registrar F south Shri. B.D Ahire was informed of such discriminating act of society of not issuing regular maintenance bill to us vide letter dated 11.06.2009 but no reply is received till to date.

And also vide Notice cum letter dated 27th March, 2010 of our Advocate Shri. Vinod Sampat’s it was informed to the society for non issuance of the maintenance bill by the society, However in response to the said point society through their advocate failed to reply.

7. Not giving Notice of Any meeting including Annual General Meeting :
For the reason stated vide Para 1(a) as stated above committee member did not issue us notice of AGM, because minutes of previous AGM meeting are to be approved in next AGM meeting, which was held in society on 14.08.2010 at 8.00 PM as told to us by some member on telephone. If we object to the said manipulation of minutes by asking them to produce last attendance AGM sheet then the committee members cannot talk on next agenda only !

8. Non supplying of copy of Annual Accounts :
In last AGM society allotted major repair work to contractor which was around Rs. 50 lakh. The society committee hurriedly carried out work for which we demanded bills and several documents through our advocate Shri. Vinod Sampat but till to date they had not given any paper though we have paid Rs. 82000/- plus for such major repair work. The work is done of extremely poor quality as several residents have started complaining about seepage and leakages.

9. Non supplying of information about M/S Semitronics (partnership firm) flat No. 01 :
(a) M/S Semitronics flat No. 01 was Business office in the society building since inception i.e. commercial use. In order to continue them as Commercial Office society in last 15 year never took any objection to them and on the contrary the society was billing/collecting almost double maintenance charges to/from them, the records were asked by Mr. R.B. Popat thorough RTI in the Month of March 2009 by making the same before Assistant Registrar F south Mumbai but no information of any sort is received either from the society or from The Registrar F South Mumbai.

(b) It is was told to us by some one that the flat transfer done of M/S Semitronics (partnership firm) is done without the copy of partnership firm registration certificate in the name of the firm. We hereby demand copy of M/S Semitronics (partnership firm) registration certificate duly certified by the Secretary of the society for verification.

10. Cutting of 20 year old tree (earlier) and few months back removal of garden across our window ( just 20 feet away) which was having 3 big 6 year old coconut tree and 100’s of plants :
(a) Mr. R. B. Popat filed first complaint of cutting of 20 year old tree (earlier) with BMC along with photograph of cut tree. However BMC officer closed the file without recording my statement.

(b).Due to apprehension of death threat from committee members ( based on above behavioral pattern ) Mr. R.B.Popat did not report about removal of garden 20 feet across window of our flat No. 01 which was converted to unwanted parking space by removing from root 3 big 6 year old coconut tree and 100’s of plants. ( However after refusal of entry in to building on 04.10.2010 vide para 1 above I have decided to complain now).

11. Not providing vital details :
Contract copies and Bill copies of for major repair work to contractor which was around Rs. 50 lakh on which Service Tax compliance, TDS compliance both under MVAT and Income Tax was asked through our advocate Shri. Vinod Sampat’s letter cum notice from society to see whether any fraud on exchequer is there or not but no such information is provided till to date.

12. Non acceptance of any letter :

Society secretary refused to acknowledge any letter from us.

I owe two falts but registration is of both ADJACENT flats are seperate. One myself and other my daughter. We have combined both the flats and now we have only one kitchen, one ration card incooperating all family member name. Now what is the procedure or how should I pay service charge.

Dear Sir,
Our society has different dynamics with 4 towers.Apollo, Athena, Avalon and Atlantis.
Apollo and Athena being 18 storyed and having 2BHK, 3BHK, 3 ½ Flats and 75% of the 2BHK flats are combined together making it 4 BHK,
The 3BHK and 3 ½ BHk have 2 sale agreements with 2 flat nos but only one possession letter and one share certificate. They are accepted as one unit on the basis of the possession letter but 4BHK have 2 agreements and 2 possession letter making it 2 units.
They are 4 flats on each Tower. Total 140 flats in both towers put together in Apollo and Athena.And the sqft area of 2BHk is 1075 sqft.
T he Avalon and Atlantis have 3BHK, 3 ½ BHK and 4BHK flats but all with one sale agreements and one possession letter .They are 17 storyed and have 3 flats on each floor. Total 98 Flats.
Under the Byelaw no .69-A our society has without any proper intimation or calling a SGBM to explain what the impact will be has decided to make our service charges flat –wise from 1st Jan 2011 The builders were charging us Sqft wise and even when the MC was formed in 2009 it was agreed in the AGM the will be paying maintenance charges are wise.we have been prepared for the repercussion when we bought these flats in 2005 .But when the Hon Secretary who knows the byelaws have not informed us at that time and admits they overlooked the same and they have even taken away our option to from 2 separate societies which would have been more fair and practical.
Since our building has different dynamics there is no equitable distribution presently with all 2BHK ( 1075 sqft) having to pay Rs.6000 more + 3BHK to pay Rs.1500 more 3 ½ BHK have to pay less- Rs.3000 and 4BHK ( which is the 2BHK combined ) having area of 2150 Sqft to pay Rs.12000 more for Quarterly maintenance charges.
It should be noted here that a 4BHK flat in Apollo/Athena of 2150 sqft will pay 12000 more as against the 4BHK (2750 sqft) of Avalon/Atlantis which will get a discount of Rs.9000.
The most affected is 2BHK in Apollo and Athena .while a 4BHK flat in Apollo/Athena will pay maintenance charges of Rs.70000, the bigger 4BHK flat in Avalon/Atlantis will have to pay only Rs.35000 .Is the allowed?
Since there are 238 flats in total taking all the flats together, they have arrived at these figures dividing the total service charges divided by 238 flats.
What we have suggested is the total service charges to be divided into half and them divide tower wise or Athena Apollo together and Avalon/Atlanits together which will make it more fair and equitable .All the service are equally used-same area of lobby in all 4 towers, same number of lifts (3each), security equally divided, FM boys the same and the club and swimming pool facilities. Since Apollo and Athena have one extra floor we are also agreeable to give due weight age to the on extra floor we have when there is an unequal distribution of flats how can we divide the amount by total number of flats? That would basically mean that Apollo and Athena are subsiding the cost incurred by Avalon & Athena which is extremely unfair.
We have to also pay backdated the differential amount from the date of society formation which will be a very large amount some o[censored]s have to pay for no fault of ours. When it was decided earlier area-wise can they change it now without a SGBM.Do we all have to pay for his mistake?
They have quoted the court verdict of Neptune CHS for paying flat-wise which we resident feel cannot be compared with Raheja Acropolis as we have totally different dynamics and structure
On the basis is it better to form 2 different societies? We do not wish this to happen as it will hinder the progress of our society. We would like them to divide the billing and then charges flat wise or continue are wise billing.
Please suggestion or commitment in to this matter.

I had issued 20 Share Certificate by the Administrator appointed by Asst. Registrar of MAHADA after Committee dissolved. And as per other Society Members they had issued 40 Share Certificates. I had apply to the New Committee Members after Election for additional 20 Shares. They are not replying my 3 lertters and verbally answered go and take the order from the Asst. Registrar of MAHADA to issue the additional Certificate OR the Administrator should give the letter to the Society to issue the additional Shares. Please help me in this matter

I had the same problem. It is easily solved by making an application to the dy. registrar o[censored]r ward with relevant documents He will subsequently direct the society u/s 79 (1) of MCS Act & if they still do not issue the share certicate he directs them u/s 79(2) & if the society still does not comply the Dy Registrar issues a letter to the Tahsildar who then directs the local police station to seize the records of the society After Tahsildar's order to the society they have very little choice than to give the share certificate.You can check T ward Mulund for a recent case where such a method was adopted successfully.Approach legally & do not be Afraid of such strong arm tactics of society office bearers Make sure all the papers /documents are in order.You will surely win.All the best

Hi,
We had a problem of leakage on our bedroomwall. Hence, we got water proofing done in the presence of one of the member. Now society asked us to paint the wall with the same color. But there is bound to have some difference. But society complains that the colour does not match. These all expenses were done by us. I talked to one of the member in somewhat rude manner, which I regret now. Society said that they will send notice to us regarding this. Society has also delayed the share certificate.
Can society send us notice and of what type when the leakage and painting expenditure was done by us?

R/sir,
In June 09, August 09 I had forwarded a letter to Secretary for issuance of my Share Certificate and then again in October 09 I had forwarded them Banks(from which i have taken loan) letter accompanied with my letter but till as on date they are not cooperating me saying that I should pay Rs 500/- which is towards renevation of the flat moreover they are saying that Rs 500/- should be paid in cash and receipt of it will not be given. The said amt is not being reflected in my monthly bill for last five months.
pls guide me, should i pay Rs 500/- (without receipt)and collect my Share Certificate or what should be done?

Thanks,

2. Secretary - who bought a flat just before me but his share certificate has the same problem as me

Can u please help me out what should i do?

Sir,
I have purchased a shop in housing society. when i contact to the secretary for transfer of share certificate in my name he refused to do so giving the reason of NOC and demanding me Rs.25000/- for NOC and Rs.3000/- for transefer fees. I was agreed for transfer fees of Rs.3000/- only. Taking NOC is the responsibility of previous owner or not. At the time of regestering of agreement I asked the previous owner about the NOC and he preduced at that time. But now when i show them that letter to the Secretary he said that it is not NOC it No Due Certificate. I dont know what is going on I want to know that whether it is legal or not. Withous NOC registrar never registered the document, my document is registered on that No Due Certificate. Whether it is misguiding to me or cheating of previous employer and the society.

Can Housing Society issue share certificate without paying stamp duty and registration by flat owner ? Can anybody help regarding this issue.

The comments are not supported by any authority, such as, specific provision of CO-Ops Act, Rules, Byelaws, T.P. ACT and other legal enactments. Without it, it is all sound and fury signifying nothing .

hi my society secetary is doing wrong things&ask for money to issue share cerificate(undertable) what to do

You may approach the District Registrar. Forward copies of the corresspondence and related documents. Obtain acknowledgement and wait for a month or little more. If you donot get any reply take recourse to RTI ACT 2005 and apply to know what action has been taken by the Registrar and under what provision of the Co-Operative Societies Act. He has to reply within 30 (45) days. Then decide the future course of action.

I purchased flat in 2005, through Bank loan . At that time i got NOC from society signed by one of the three member of the administrative board. Even as the bank had no issue about that, yet the society under the new managing committee refused to take cognizance of the NOC given by the earlier admn. board ( signed by one member) Further as per the new managing committee there was pending dues to be recovered from the previous owner of the flat . Because of this even though i have share certificate but the society has not transferred by name on the same. Even though right from the day of purchase i have regularly paid the society charges /dues etc . The society wants me to pay the dues on the flat ( which was imposed after 4 years of purchase of the flat) . My issue is that society is not transferring m name on the share certificate . Please advise . [protected]@gmail.com

The Gujarat High Court held that the instrument of transfer of shares confers title on the purchaser in respect of the transferor’s premises but that does not require registration. Now if it is a transfer by way of sale of an immovable property or any interest therein worth more than Rs.100/- such a document would require registration under section 54 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 irrespective of section 42 of the Gujarat Co-Operative Societies Act or section 17(1) of the Registration ACT and if it is a transfer of an immovable property why should it not attract advalorem stamp duty under the Bombay Stamp Act which is also in force in the Gujarat State?
PAGE 457
(a) Apropos the transfer of shares, it is submitted that neither the Cooperative Societies Act nor the rules prescribe any form of transfer of shares. The model Bye-Laws provide that an application for transfer shall be in the form set out in schedule II appended to the bye-laws. However the form in schedule is not an application but a deed of transfer of share itself. The main portion of the newly prescribed form is “ I do hereby transfer to ... the fully paid up shares... and my following interest in the immovable property of the Society viz. Flat No... etc The form not only amounts to transfer of shares but to a transfer of an interest in the immovable property” It is submitted that the Registrar has no jurisdiction to prescribe such a form and it goes beyond the provision of the ACT and the rules for the simple reason that the document being transfer of an interest in immovable property would amount to a deed of sale or transfer of property ... and the Registrar has not to prescribe such a form of conveyance or transfer of immovable property.

My Dad expired in the month of august 2010, he has nominated my mother in the nomination form. The Secretary of my Society is insisting that we the children give a NO OBJECTION certificate to transfer the share certificate to my Mother's name. It this necessary? Please advice. How do I make the society transfer the share certificate to my Mother's name.

My Share Certificate is with a Bank who financed Housing Loan. Secretary wants the Share Certificate alongwith Transfer Papers to complete the transfer formalities, whereas, Bank wants some proof that the share has been transferred or allotted to me by the Society before handing over the Share Certificate to me for endorsement thereon. What to do?

I have purchased a flat in co-operative society with by taking a loan from my office.

All the formalities for the said deal have been completed. Now, after the
transfer of names (mine is resale flat) the society insists that the duly transferred share certificate will not be given to me but somebody should
come from the office and collect the same or else the office has to issue
an authority letter to me for collecting the duly transferred share certificate.

The society refuses to hand over the certificate and office refuses to give me a authority letter to collect the share certificate nor send somebody to
collect the share certificate from Hsg. Society.

Sending by post or courier is risky.

Kindly let me know what is the solution to the problem.

Co-operative housing society — opening of accounts with The mumbai District Co-operative Bank

Is it mandatory for Cooperative housing societys to maintain accounts with coopearative banks? Our society is located in Mumbai.

I am residing in my current residence since 1985 with my father, wife and children.my father had given an application to the society regarding transfer of flat in my name. and the maintenance receipt was also transferred in my name in 1995, but I was not aware about the share certificate. My father expired in 2002, now when I found that the share certificate still reflects my fathers name I wrote an application to the society for the transfer of share certificate but they are denying for the same since a year or so and later they asked me for NOC from my brother and sisters even after I have produced my father's WILL which clearly states that the flat is transferred on my name. could u help with this issue.

I have submitted all my papers, and paid the transfer, and membership charges to the society, now they are denying me to give the share certificate, saying that sailor (Ex.Owner) need to come down to collect it.

I made an argument"since I am a bonafide member of the society so I am having all rights to collect the share certificate and as per the society documents and the agreement he has transferred his shares to me"

now my question is can i approach society legally or not or what I need to do to overcome from this situation?

Sir,
I am staying in a CHS. Our flat is in the name of my husband and my father in law. We are the second owners of the flat. We took a loan from ICICI bank and the first owner of the flat had the loan form ICICI only. At that time, we completed all the paper work and the papers of the flat were mortgaged with the bank. Now, we want to sell our flat since it is 1bhk and we want to buy 2 bhk and we have come to know that the share certificate of the flat are still in the name of the first owner and have not been transferred in our name. We have been paying EMIs for more than 5 years now and the bank is denying the transfer of share certificate in our name stating that we have to get a letter from the society. The society has also denied issuance of the letter and now we are left with no where to go. Please advise as to what can be done to rectify that since we have been staying in the society for more than 5 years. Please please please advise.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I purchased a flat on re-sale in July 2011 after obtaining Builder NOC (as the society formation was still under process) and bank has also transferred the mortgage from seller to me after all verification.
Later, after the society was formed, in the month of December 2011, Secretary of the society has also issued me NOC to transfer the owner of property in the municipal corporation records, which has been done successfully.
Now, Society is NOT issuing me share certificate stating the reason that there is some maintenance amount due with the previous owner before my purchase of the flat.
Please advice if society has rights can deny me share certificate in this situation? And also kindly advice for next steps I can take.

Kind Regards,
Ashutosh, Pune

There is an old buliding situated on Nehru Road Opp Post office by the name of Kalika Niwas is in bad shape there is no repair conducted, Please revert for this

Hello,

I have contributed a amount to society for repairing which was going to happen in that month (Dec 2009), but some how all of the tenants did not gave money so it was held up. After that there was no meeting held about the repairing.

As when the work was to be done was not sure i asked for refund & gave a letter to secretary.
But till to-date no steps have been taken to refund my money back.

Please suggest what action should I take.

There is a leakage of rain water from the terrace and the walls of the building and the 3rd floors (top floors) are mainly affected by it. Even 2nd and first floor also are affected by the water leakage. Our society's working committee is not paying attention on it, they even refuses to accept the written complaints. AGMs are also not called for last 5 years. Our society has got an ownership flat at ground floor. It's monthly rent and maintenance also comes regularly. But, the committee members are not ready to show the funds of th society. We need an amount to build a shed on the terrace and it is a preliminary need.

In the recent monsoon most of the families are suffering from water leakage from the terrace. They are not agree to construct the roof on the terrace, as most of the societys have done and their problems are solved.

Can we sue the society? What will be the procedure?

I am a member of a society called Pramukh Vijay Coop Hsg society in Marol, Andheri (E), which is part of the LT Colony. We have been residence of this society for the last 30 + years and have been very regular in paying all the maintenance and other charges demanded by the society at regular intervals. However now my grouse is I had a near death accident when my roof of the 4th floor aprt that I live in collapsed and almost killed me and my son. Before this I had major leakage which destroyed my fan and I made a complain of the same to the society. They did not take any action to this and hence the second mishap took place. Now they have woken up and agreed to do the repairs of the terrace which is in a miserable state, so much so it could be dangerous to the whole building. However we refuse to pay the charges for the damages caused to myflat due to the negligence of the society in full, they reckon they will pay only 25% of the charges and the balance 75% has to be paid by me. Please let me know if this is justified. Also is there a clause that says that the society will pay only 25% of any damages casued to members flats due to negligence of building maintenance as they mention to me. Would appreciate your advice.

As per the bye laws, the terrace belongs to the society it is their duty to see that the terrace is done. pl. advise your cell/tel. number may be I could speak to you on this issue & give you more knowlege also there are many associations which do come forward to help

Continuation of Managing Committee for fourth term by force

In our society, the managing committee never took election for the last 14 years. The committee feels that the new generation is not capable of handling the society matters or development issues of the building. They boast that they have vast experience in the above.
Now, 27 members out of 40 members in the society have asked for dissolution of the committee. Finally with much adu the committee agreed to conduct election. All the committee members are contesting for the seat in new committee.
CAN THE COMMITTEE AFTER RULING THE SOCIETY FOR 14 YEARS ARE ELIGIBLE TO STAND AS A CANDIDATE FOR NEW COMMITTEE.
They are defaulters in many ways. We want this people out of the race in contesting.Kindly advice.

The bye-laws says if you want a copy of any communication/accounts/letters/minutes of meeting from society you have to pay Rs 5/- per copy. But if you want to inspect the same in society office no need for any payment .Just write a letter to the secretary that you want to inspect the required information in presence of any office bearer. They have to show you within a period of 15 days failing which you can approach Dy Registrar. It is your right to see any or all the information you need.

Please refer to the bye-laws of Co-Operative Housing Society Page no. 33 Sr no. 118 and to the MCS Act 1960 page[protected]FF) (e) says: no person shall be eligible for being elected as a member of the committee or co-opted:If the MC member failed to pay the dues within three months after serving of notice in writing, served either by hand delivery or by post (under certificate of posting) demanding the payment of dues.

In the case the defaulter’s notice was served to all the defaulters including the said defaulter who partly paid after 5 months (not within permissible time limit of 3 months) continues to be a defaulter, the said MC member seized to be member of the Managing Committee.

The Hon; Secretary always misguide the General body in the AGM by giving baseless excuses, the intention was to shield the said defaulter saying since no one is willing to join the committee and sometime the MC members don’t attend the meetings .Not following the bye-laws amounts to violation even General Body have no authority amend the bye-laws.


(i) Refer to the order of the Divisional Joint Registrar of the Co- Op Societies, Mumbai Division, Mumbai says that if the MC Member did not execute the necessary bond within the prescribed time limit of 15 days after assuming the charges of the office of the society as required u/s 73 (1AB) of the MCS Act 1960. Even, If the member has executed the bond but after the period of 15 days. Therefore there is violation of mandatory provision of the said Act. Due to this failure of the MC Member to execute the necessary bond in 15 days, for this reason alone he seized to be MC Member of the society. failing which the matter will be escalated you write like this and inform the Dy Registrar for inspection of recprd then he will hve to issue show cause notice and follows other procedure to appoint Adminstrator.

ANy one can stand for election even previous MC Members .But see to it that at the time of fdiling the form they are not defaulter and all dues are cleared even one month rent sholud be cleared

If a member feels that the mg.committee has been misappropriating funds of the society members, then it can apply to the ward coop registrar for an inspection of the records and accounts of the society. During inspection all records will come out and if any mischief is found, the registrar will take appropriate legal action.

Dear Sir,
our society matters have not been handeled by the books. a lot of misguidence and extortion is going on. members are not ready to speak cause they may lose their parking space, membership, etc. a grop of autocrats are ruling. past two years balace sheet has not been discussed. sub-comitees have been formed before AGM. basic amenities like water supply of the non defaulters is cut without noice. now without AGM they are out to get a new registration number.
please help the ones who are willing to raise thier voices for help.

Managing Committee is misusing the funds, they take a 80% OD facility against our Sinking Fund without passing in the AGM and even not taking the consent of the majority members and they have uses of this funds in paver block. When we argues to registrar found that Society is making a application for using the fund in paver block but registrar has given the permission to use this fund in Building Repairing. Great surprise we found in above data. Please advice what can we (member) do

The building in which we are staying have not yet formed a society but they are planning to install CCTV camera and therefore are asking for Rs 3000/- per flat for installation of the same. If few of the members are not willing to give the money as society is also not formed and even they are not willing for the installation but proper security persons. What are the rights of owner of flat whose society is not formed whether they can deny the installation or money??If society is formed whether it is mandatory for pay the money of such above purpose if the people takes such decision in future...please let me know both the consequences if soc is not formed and if soc is formed??

I have made certain payments towards society, but they have not issued receipts for the same, instead they have used the payments for settlement of other issues which I have not instructed, can they do this legally. I understand as per Maharashtra society law 1960 it is illegal for them to do this. Am I right in fighting them on this issue. Thanks for your advise.
Regards
Ivan

My society's Mg committee has passed in SGM Rs. 40 Lakhs for deemed conveyance. Without giving tender and without knowledge of members of society and allotted work to one Advocate . Mg. Comm. Has also disbursed Rs 1, 70, 000/=
Ld. Dep. Reg. Has also objected but Mg.Comm. Has not obey the order of Dep.Reg.of Co-Sty.
I am planning for gather signature of some members for requisite SGM with fresh scrutiny of tenders.
Kindly help me if you have some crucial suggestions.
Mr.Dalal

i live in cooperative housing society in which the ex chairman had made payment to advocate regarding indvidual court cases that to after election were held and during the handing over period. even the bill recireved were after election period. can he officially do this deed once his tenured has ended. no resolution was ever passed.

I have a house in Mumbai (mulund) and it has been given on Rent, the society members have now decided to collect addtional charge of Rs 1000/- from the flat owner who have given his flat on Rent. The maintainence charge collected by the society is Rs. 3.50/- per sq ft.

Pl advise can the society enforce such as additional charge.

the society can charge max. only 10% of the service charges if the flat is given on rental basis. it can not over this. even if this was passed in the Annual General Body meeting of the society, it has to be approved by the Deputy Registrar of Societies. Or else to can file a complaint with the registrar against society.

I have placed a complaint of a tenant above my flat of redoing up the flat at the cost of damaging the slab i.e cutting through and laying the drain pipeline in the bedroom & converting the part portion into a kitchen. I have placed my complaint and had stopped a part payment payment of a major repairs due to the society non heeding to my complaints the matter was put before the Dy registrar of society under section 101 .I had placed my grievance before the Dy registrar also but till date no replay heard from their end. I would like to know that after the filing of my case under 101 of society act can the society charge me interest on the Principal amount even than the verdict from the Dy registrar is received can we put some information on this & help me to resolve the matter.
Regards.

Our society comprises of 3 buildings and 50 members. Out of these, 2 members are not paying maintenace charges from the days of exisitence of the society, and 10 members are also defaulters. Our society management has not taken any actioin against the erring members. AGM is not being held regularly and the last AGM was held on 15/2/09 to pass the auitiors report for the year 2006-07. I have seen the state of affairs of our society and I raised the issues with the socity management. But the society is not prepared to listen anything. During the AGM Chairman himself absent and AGM was held in the presence of Secretary and Treasurer. I requested the managing committee to postpone the AGM due the following reasons but my suggestion overturned by all members. Although 37 members were present, including proxies, no one raised a voice and hence my point of objection was rejected, on the ground that they will convene another AGM within 2 months to pass 2007-08 and 2008-09 accounts altogether.

During the year 2007 March, members contributed to a special fund for plastering work exclusively for one of our bldg. and contribution worked out was Rs. 23, 000/- for each member. Since the plastering work has not done properly, I asked the society the details of the plastering account, such as contribution of each member and money paid to the Contractor as I doubted that chairman, treasurer, and secretary whose stays in our bldg. not at all contributed or paid only half towards this fund. But the Secretary in the AGM said that he will give the account only after the next AGM which is due after 2 months.

Now I don't know how to go about it. Shall I go to Registrar to get the details or should I lodge RTI. If so, to whom should I put up the complaint/ RTI. Also I want to drag the society management to all their short comings.

1. No M 20 bond made even after 2 years.
2. Nothing done for recovery of dues from defaulters
3. No name of the society in the main gate
4. Defaulters are in the society management
5. Account is not transparant
6. IF any member makes any genuine complaint, no action is being taken.

Recently one of the tenants who stay in the 3rd floor above my apartment have renovated and made alteration in his flat without permission to the society. It was a major work. He changed all his flooring for marble which compromised and tampered with the orignal engineering work like removing the entire mud from the floor base and keeping bottom layer for laying down the marble with concrete mix and altered the bathroom and toilet in which the flooring changed only 2 years ago. Due to this, my ceiling started leaking and cracks appeared in the seal. Also near the beam in my hall, water dripped for hours during his work which I showed to the society managing committee and the miscreant tenant. Alhough the society is sympathetic with me, they said, being an internal work, society will not interfere. Then I wrote to the society to take action against the erring member who did the job without permission from the society on the ground that he has tampered with the original work. There were many people did flooring work, but there was not single cracks or leaks appeared in lower floor flats. Again I sent a reminder in which I cautioned them I would make the complaint to the Dy. Registrar, Kalyan if society fails to take action. Still, society didn't take any action, I complained to Dy.Registrar, Kalyan and their action is awaited.. I don't know whether it is in order to make complaint to the Dy.Registrar to this effect. But in my complaint I never mentioned any other irregularities of the society.

Now I want to make a new complaint to other points I explained here, please advise me as to how to got about it. If I make a complaint against the society, I will be left alone by other members because they are least interested and interested only in their personal affairs. They say they have no time to go behind it. My case is also not different. I also don't want to go behind it for a longer period of time as I have aso my personal problems like other members. Also it is needless to mention if anything good coming out from my complaint will be benefitted to all society members. So, Is it possible to give a hint to Dy. Registrar about the affairs of our society, when I meet him next to follow up my first complaint? Will it work? Or pl advise me as to go about it without wasting much of my time and money for a common cause.

Our society comprises of 42 members, at M.G.Rd. Kandivli ( W), Mumbai.The society building is now 30 years old.
In the year[protected], the Society decided to collect Rs.40/- per sq. ft. in 4 equal installment to carry out Repairs of RCC structure, filling up craks / gaps of the external walls of the Building, plastering & coloring of the buildings.Work started in the year 2002,

Unfortunately, the repairs work was not proper, in the monsoon of 2002, the water leakage from the external walls of the building was increased. This problem was not solved.

Again, in the year[protected], members contributed to a special fund for Re-plastering work exclusively, but the problem has not been solved till today. Due to water leakage due to external walls of the building during the monsoon, many members have suffered in their flats. Now the society does not carry out this repiars.
Hence we four members of the Society have stopped maintenace payments due to the society non heeding to our complaints. We have informed the Societyseveral times that we will pay all our dues immediately if the Society gives an assurance to repair water leakage problem due to external walls of the Building.

Shall we put our complaints before the Dy registrar of society under section 101 ? We have already given our complaints to BMS R-ward west zone to look into the matter as the building life is in danger due to water leakage due to external walls of the Building. BMC has also serve a notice to the Society, but nothing has happended upto now.

Now we don't know how to go about it. Shall we go to Registrar to get the details or should we lodge RTI. If so, to whom should I put up the complaint/ RTI. Also we want to drag the society management to all their short comings.

I HAV A FLAT IN KANDIVLI. in the AGM the secretary has put up that along with proper maintenance and non occupancy charges i hav to pay an additional of Rs-5000 because my house is given on rental basis.

is it legal for the secretary to ask this amount and am i suppose to pay? thankyou. please advise.

1) what is the duty of chairman of co-op. hsg. soc.
please give me details?
2) if leakage persist in flat i.e in between floors
who has to pay for the repair?

sir/maam, as in every 17 members - 14 flats and 3 shops, on 30.3.09;the biggest trouble maker is a hon.treasurer ('dr.h.colaso') basically a 'real estate on commision', the next is hon.chairperson (mrs.ladak0 hand-in-glove;
all use contrary orders to watchman/plumber/sweeper
even back-bite on the hon.secrectary (capt.s.chagla) -which smear / even threaten the problems to me.

in this society is Topaz apt, opp.st.andrews, hill road
my tel:65824045
yesterday told me to resign, can it do so easily-as I have done a lot in 1.3year to improve the society

Our Building is not a registered society. I stay on 1st floor. There is a major leakage from the bathroom of above our flat. That gfentleman says that leakage is from the other house and not from his house.I can complain to BMC? We pays rent in Income tax so our landlord is not involved in this matter.Ours is a rented property.

as per old & model bye-laws of a Res.society
1.2 well-known lawyers basically, agree with my decision
2.due to a majority the are 'khoja' community is disagreeing (& for 'cash'-fooling the members)
3.nobody can 'sack on hon.sec' just on silly idea's, the treasurer & chairperson abused dirty language on me & later they tore 2 pages of the monthly minutes
4.is this correct to have a special meeting or no, shall I issue or sent a legal notice assumed mng.comm
5.next we have 3 women & 3 men; as per bye-laws just 1 women can be in a small society
6.as tendors & 'no dirty money is their basic frustration'
7.society was in a mess before me-15lac 'disappeared'
8.after me entire outside painting, both pumps ok, auto-water system, chemistik to full terrace, railing to senior citizen's;
9.as the hon.treas.had her nepali watchmen & he/friends an attempt of murder in next to our society, to a 79 year old bacheler
10.also on fitting compound tiles on best tender-...but they realised that this man(me) does not use
any (dirty money)...so they without informing me had a 'sly' meeting just on letterhead via to a yet 'nepali' watchman-I refused...but all at 28th april came to my door at 2.45pm

regards

I staying in MHADA Building at Malad (East) at 3rd flr, My Society has ask me to pay Rs.1000/- towards they have done plumbing work in between my flat & external wall of society.

Society plumber has told to the committee member that there is leakage between my sink pipe joint in society common pipe in society external wall.

Please advise me who is responsible to pay this amount Society or member?

I am a flat owner in registered co-op. housng society in district of Navsari, Gujarat State. The share certificate issued to me in the in the month of may'2000. The builder is still acting as a promoter / secretary of the society. He has collected all the maintenance charges from flat owners before the possession of the flat.
Now, i want to sale my flat.
Do i require to make dastavej of my possession before selling. The local city survey office is not accepting my application to enter my name in city survey and insisting me to carry out dastavej according to present jantri.
As i know, earlier, co-operative hsg. society norms didn't insist upon to carry out dastavej, the issue of share certificate is considered as transaction of sale and no stamduty is lvied thereof.
As local city survey office insisting me to carry out dastavej and thereby to pay stamp duty, i am confused by the law.
kindly guide me by narrating supporting law.

28th March came to me as that last night had already decided-I was not called!
so the watchman was 'sacked' why the told me.
a trouble hon.chairperson & the hon.treasurer are siphoning cash, I used to put sealed tenders
for leakages of terraces, entire painting, railing to senior citizens, genuine watchman, water pumps were being leaking-so the chairperson & treasurer changed a new contractr on a 'buck'
NO Best tiles shown to them dut for any silly excuse's to 3 managing commitee and 3 are men...that itself is in 6 mng.members only 1 can be a woman (as bye-laws)
So eventually I STEPPED DOWN BUT PAGES BY THE 'DRUNK' TREASURER HAD TO TORE THE MNG COMMITEE PAGE-it self is a libel-mow immediately each making a 'good whack'

I want a sample letter of resignation from the post of Secretary

Myself and my wife live on the first floor of a 1BHK flat at Borivli West. I own the flat and am a member of the Cooperative Housing Society. Below we have some space around the stilt which is mainly used as parking space. Now the problem is that the grown up children in the society have started plahying cricket just below our flat very close to our windows. This is such a nuisance that they make loud noise and many times there were instances of cricket balls being thrown into our flat, fortunately the window glasses have so far not broken, but there is every chance of the same. I have not only talked to the Secretary and the Managing Committee of the housing society but even submitted a complaint in writing. However, they dont take proper action as their children are also involved in this. It would be a kind help if anyone can advise and guide me as to what course of action I should pursue. Many thanks.
