Terrace flat in cooperative society not part of aos

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 11 December 2020 This query is : Resolved
I intend to buy a terrace flat in Thane, Maharashtra. AoS doesn't mentions Terrace area but seller can provide allotment letter he has from earlier owner. Floor plan doesn't mention this terrace area. Should I go ahead with purchase based on allotment letter. Property is not top for property. It's on lower floor and entrance to the terrace is solely from the flat under consideration. Please suggest urgently.

Purchasing on the basis of allottment letter cannot be a valid title.It is not advisable to take risk.

What is AoS? How it is a relevant issue?

Terrace of a flat in cooperative society forms part of "common area" which can not be sold.
Read Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act.

It would be better to consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for appreciation of facts/ documents, professional advise and necessary proceeding.
