Hi Everyone,
Pls anwer my query,
mY husband bought our flat along wid the detachable closed garage 10 yrs back in mumbai surbaban area in a building which was constructed in 1984.In our agreement wid the first owner there is d mention af the garage along wid our flat, and we hv paid the stamp duty accordingly.
Now after so many yrs, all members of d society hv decided to sell the plot.Nw regarding the distribution of the money the other members of the society say tat the garage constructed is illegally done by the first owner itself and they will not pay us any amt for the garage.they say tat there is no mention of the garage in the original plan of the bmc and tat the first owners hv built tat garage illegally bu paying the builder some extra money.
As for us we pay the municipal tax for the garage included in the maintainance since the society has been formed.
Nw my question is is:
1) is the garage legally or illegaly onstructed
2)if it is legal then wat is the step to be taken to prove it
3)if it is allegal then whr do we stand coz we hav already paid for the garage.
4)is the mentioning of the garage(illegal or legal)necessary during the conveyance of the plot.
Pls answer my queries soon
thankyou
