Q
Hello Team, I am looking for some guidance regarding the Conveyance Deed process for our housing society. Our society is nearly 38 years old, and the Conveyance Deed has still not been executed. We initiated the process approximately two years ago and have engaged an advocate to handle it. However, there has been very little progress, and we are concerned that the matter is not moving forward effectively. The advocate has informed us that the delay is due to missing documents, particularly those related to the initial chain of ownership. He has also mentioned that stamp duty was not paid for some of the earlier transactions, although some flat owners have paid it. My understanding is that many of the original owners have already sold their flats, and the current owners have paid stamp duty at the time of their purchase based on the prevailing government valuation. Therefore, I am struggling to understand why the issue of unpaid stamp duty by previous owners is still preventing the Conveyance Deed process from moving forward. My questions are: Is it mandatory for the original owner (or current owner) to pay any historical unpaid stamp duty before the Conveyance Deed can be executed? If the concerned owners are unwilling or unable to make such payments, what options are available to the society? Is this a valid reason for delaying the Conveyance Deed process, or could there be some misunderstanding regarding the requirements? I would appreciate any advice from members who have faced a similar situation or have experience with deemed conveyance matters. Thank you in advance for your guidance.
Yes, this is a fairly common issue in old Maharashtra housing societies, but the position needs to be examined transaction-wise. Under Section 11 of the Maharashtra Ownership Flats Act, 1963, a society can pursue unilateral/deemed conveyance where the promoter…

Q
My husband went missing in December 2016. We registered a missing complaint with Arnala police station. They gave us ref number. In the mean time we tried contacting our close relatives and friends. We also searched at various hospitals to see if he has been admitted somewhere for any sudden illness or accident. But we were not able to get any trace. We followed up with the police station several times but there was no success. It has been more than 9 years so now we wish to apply for death certificate
After a person has been missing for more than 7 years, the family may approach the competent Civil Court to obtain a declaration of civil death. Based on the court's order, the concerned authority can issue a death certificate. The missing complaint, police re…
Q
SatBhara not available, property purchased 20 years back What would be the process for Satbhara?
If the 7/12 (Satbara) is not available for a property purchased 20 years ago, the process depends on the reason why it is unavailable. 1. First, verify whether the property is required to have a 7/12. In municipal areas, the 7/12 may have been replaced by a P…
Q
I own a flat in Pune. Can a Society impose interest/penalty on a non resident, non local flat owner who has been regularly paying basic maintenance every month & pending dues in lumpsum every 2 years, due to deficiency of services on part of society to send regular bills to the flat owner?
Yes, a housing society may be entitled to levy interest on delayed maintenance payments, but whether it can legally recover that interest depends on the facts and its own governing documents. Here are the key points Check the Society's Bye-laws. Most Coopera…
Q
I live with a family. There are 3 neighboring flats rented to students. All 3 flats have a bedbug inf estation problem. They always had a problem of bedbugs but they never took care of it and now those bedbugs are entering our house too. Thei r landlords refuse any action. The chairman is in on it too. We're fed up of telling the landlords an d chairman time and again of our situation but s o far they've made it clear indirectly that they d on't care as they don't face the same problem. What are my options? Is it even worth approaching police? I want to do something before it gets worse.
You should first make a written complaint to the Society and the landlords, asking them to take immediate pest control measures. A housing society has a duty to address issues affecting the health and safety of residents. Keep photographs, videos, and records…
