Transfer premium as per old (regd) or model bye law

(Querist) 02 February 2020 This query is : Resolved 
My father gifted the flat in my name and i want to transfer the shares. Society is asking us to pay Rs.20000/-
As per my Knowledge in case of gift to family members no transfer premium is charged as per model bye law 38(e)(ix)
Society said they are following very old bye law where as per bye law you have to pay 2.5% of difference of book value and sale value of flat.

can u pls clarfiy..

1. Is Model bye laws are not binding on society even if they have not adopted.
2. Can Society force me to pay as per such old bye law.. (i guess its of before 2009/2001), and if yes how much is payable on gift transfer as per old bye law.

Quick Summary
A flat owner received their property as a gift but the housing society is demanding a £20,000 transfer premium. The owner believes this is incorrect, as model bye-laws typically exempt gifts to family members from such charges. The society claims they are following older, pre-2009 bye-laws, which stipulate a 2.5% charge. The discussion advises challenging the society's demand, potentially by complaining to the Deputy Registrar of Cooperative Housing Societies or seeking legal counsel, as new model rules are generally binding.

Society demand is invalid and illegal which should have been challenged before appropriate authority i.e., RCS and/or competent court of law.
It is advisable to consult a local prudent lawyer for appreciation of facts/ documents, professional guidance and necessary proceeding.

agree with the learned expert vashista ji,
refuse their demand in writing mentioning the same as bad in law, illegal

You have to complain against the society to the Dy.Registrar of Cooperative Housing Societies concerned and then file case.

1. New Model Rules are binding for the society.

2. No is the sole reply to your second query. You need to make a written complaint to the registrar of societies as the demand is illegal,

Society replied: The Amount is been passed in the AGM so have to pay
Deputy Registrar Office: Since AGM has passed resolution, we dont have powers to make notice, Go to Consumer Court.

Pls let me know resolution of AGM (20000 transfer fee for gift deed) have any value if bye law says 600.

what step to do ? who much to pay

Dear Sir,
If you do not agree with Society then there will be so many problems and you have an option to challenge such bye-laws if any.
