Appartment owners association -

Ramakrishnan (Querist) 15 January 2018 This query is : Resolved
Dear Lawyers Team

Need your help, I own a villa ( Independent House) in Bangalore. After I took over from Builder till today I have not stayed in my use its empty and not occupied. Since its a gated community, the owners have formed a registered association and started charging monthly maintenance, Neither I was informed about monthly charges nor about the payment and the late payment charges. Today after 3+ years when I want to move into my house the association is not allowing me to move in ( there is no water supply). They have asked me to pay the outstanding maintenance charges. I am ok with maintenance charges but they are asking to pay around Rs 70000 for late payment of maintenance.
Can you advise if I can get some help, I can't pay Rs 70000 Late payment? I have never got any email/bill/show cause notice etc., for the maintenance ( In spite of me writing to them 2-3 times)

Let me know what is the legal option I have

Thanks
Ram

Try solve amicably without resorting to legal action so as to maintain cordial relationship with neighbours.

Your story smacks some artificiality.

Can you send a copy of the bill issued by the association through email to me.

Is the association registered. Anyhow, you may serve a legal notice suggesting legal action. And whatever be the circumstance, water connection cannot be used as a bargaining chip.
