my society has gone for external plaster works, every tenants was asked to pay 40000/- in installment, but however most of the tenant due to financial obligation could not make the payment of installment. Society then informed all tenants that they will penalize 500/- monthly for not making the payment. However entire 40,000/- was payed to the society before the ommencement of plastering work by the tenants, some tenant still has to pay the amount . our plastering work has been completed recently. The society is asking the penalty of 500/- monthly for delayed months, from the tenants who has already payed 40000 before commencement of plastering works which goes to 4-5000/- as penalty.kindly advice.

Your society cannot charge such huge amount of Rs. 500/- per day as penalty. Pls approach the Registrar of Co-op. Society for timely action.

i think Mr. Arul is right, the asking of penalty is questionable....is there some specific provision in this context?

when tenants have paid the entire amount to the builder he cannot ask the money for plastering. As Arul said complain the registrar of co-op., societies and issue notice to the builder for illegal demand.
