increase in maintenance charges

Firstly your association is not a registered body hence it is not a legally recognised entity, therefore the association's action against the builder is not legally maintainable because the unregistered association can neither sue nor it can be sued.
If you people find the builder is extremely hostile and is not responding to your demands for proper maintenance of the apartment complex then you can issue a legal notice to the builder and then follow it up through consumer commission demanding compensation for deficiency in service and also a stay order from charging additional maintenance amount without completing the pending works or raising it arbitrarily
You all try to get the association registered so that the association as a legal body can take a proper and effective action against the builder and claim the handover of the apartment and the common areas of the apartment complex
