Housing society wrong charges

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 14 September 2023 This query is : Resolved
I am a member of a housing society in mumbai, The society has included tenancy charges, water1 & water2 charges, and Non occupancy charges which are 10% of maintenance bill.(it should be 10% of the service charge component of the maintenance charges). I pointed this out to the society managing committee, and have written to them number of times, but they refuse to correct the bills. Instead, they are charging delayed payment interest on the bill.
They even refuse to provide a copy of the byelaws or resolutions passed.
what is the remedy

Quick Summary

If your housing society is incorrectly charging you for services like tenancy, water, or non-occupancy, and refuses to rectify the bills, you have several options. You can send a legal notice demanding corrections and access to the society's bylaws. If this fails, consider lodging a complaint with the Registrar of Cooperative Societies or filing a case with the consumer forum for deficiency in service.

You can issue a legal notice through your lawyer demanding your requirements including permission to visit the bylaws book.
€if they do not oblige then you can either make a complaint with the registrar or file a complaint with the consumer forum for deficiency in service and compensation thereon

Yes. You can obtain a copy of the bylaw from the society and if they refuse, obtain a copy of the same from the Registrar/Jt.Registrar of Coop. Societies of your area and also complain to him against the society.

If unsatisfied, you need to escalate the issue before the competent forum/authority.
