Civil litigation

The Executive Committee of our flat owners association backed me up (by a resolution) in a case I filed by my own in a Court against Corporation of Chennai for the benefit for the association. I am a flat owner myself. I won the case and sent the bill for cost of filing. It was refused. The reason quoted was that I approached the court of my own and the backup was for moral boosting only and not for reimbursement of cost of filing as well. The resolution says the Committee feels there is no necessity for filing a separate petition by association since I am following the case.
I and the Secretary, who refused, are going before the General Body of the Association to get votes (total 177)
Can any member advise who stands a better chance on legal grounds?
