Dear Expert..
Is a maintenance charge is applicable on the terrace which is partially covered by a owner of the flat.
In our society a owner has covered his 75 % of terrace by asbestos sheet.
He is paying the maintenance for 1/3 rd of the terrace as per the sale agreement.
As he as covered the terrace can he be charged for the full area of terrace.
Also can the maintenance charged as per the actual area of the flat or as per the sale agreement.
As many sellers in new mumbai show less area in sale deed.
