Quick Summary

A building's lobby and parking staircases are experiencing critical leakage issues. The Society Committee claims flat owners are responsible, stating the source is from their flats, though this is unproven. The discussion explores whether the society or the flat owner should bear the repair costs, referencing society bylaws and suggesting legal avenues like serving a notice through an advocate if the committee acts contrary to regulations.

What are the terms and conditions of the bylaw of the society? If they do anything contrary to the terms and conditions, you may complain to the Dy.Registrar/Jt. Director of the Cooperative Housing Societies of your District.

Hello,

As per society leakage is from the upper flat so in your case, the flat owner has to repair it. Or if society is avoiding by giving the wrong reason then you can approach the co. op. registrar and file a complaint against society.

You may seek remedies against the flat owner concerned as well the Society. As the first step, you have option to serve a Notice through an Advocate.

Refer the deed of the society. It's better to serve legal notice to the secretary as it is his responsibility to fix the problem.

Leakage are at 8 different places outside Flats , out of 2 , 1 lift has shut down since last 4 months.
Committee is asking to pay money for repair. Without any evidence, committee is claiming source is from Flat.
