Hi,
My society has 100 flats and all of them are giving maintenance to them in cash .During pandemic also they force to give in cash and deny accepting payment in gpay or internet banking. Even if someone had covid once he recovers he shouts at them and ask for cash.
what could be the reason. Are they doing this to evade tax. Secretary is an uneducated unsocial person. What can i do to make him understand what he is doing is wrong?
A resident is concerned that their society secretary, who manages 100 flats, insists on receiving maintenance payments exclusively in cash, even during the pandemic and after illness. The resident suspects this might be to evade taxes, given the secretary's behaviour. They are seeking advice on how to address this with the secretary and the society, considering options like raising it in a General Body Meeting or gathering support to push for digital payment methods.

It may be kept in the General Body meeting of the society and propose to change the Secretary and get it to be approved by 2/3rds or 3/5th majoirty.

What is the problem if you pay him through cash? As might an unnecessary expense will be incurred for going Bank, he wants in cash! Don't you get receipts? If not then this is an issue!
