Earlier the indivdual share of an Apartment owner was being worked out based on percentage of plinth area or Super Built Area of the Apartment wrt Total Plinth Area or Super Builtup area. Now the new Tamil Nadu Apartment Ownership Act 2022 and its Rules and the new Model Bye-Laws specify that the individual share has to be worked out based as a percentage of the Carpet Area of the Apartment wrt to the Total Carpet Area of the Apartment building or complex.
In the earlier Apartment complexes, the Registered Documents mentioned the Plinth Area only and the UDS was worked based on this. Is there any mandatory order specifying the percentage to be adopted to arrive at the Carpet Area of individual apartments from the already recorded Plinth Area in such old Apartment complexes to comply with the New Act?
This information will be useful so that all Apartment owners of the Apartment complex will adapt a uniform percentage.
