Can aoa can disconnect electricity

When you are living in a society, by all means avoid frictions and toe the line of others as they are not looting you and acting for the benefit of all the residents.  Without issuing notice and making a demand, disconnecting electricity (Essential Service) is not proper.

Who is providint the supply of electricity - is it the Society? If so, are they authorised under the Law to distibute electricity?

Thank you all for your reply. We don't have government meters installed though we fought for the same but builder never agree to do. We have private meters installed by the builder but I suppose it should be mandatory to provide the monthly bill on time even though they have prepaid meters installed.

You are a member or occupier (such as tenant, relative, licencee) of the flat in Society ?

Whether the Society is a coopertive or any other type to ascertain applicability of law governing subject matter ?

Is there any resolution passed by General Body Meeting of the Soceity to install pre-paid electricity meters for each individual flat?  

There is no illegality / legal infirmity in adopting resolution qua installation of pre-paid electricity meter(s) in the Society.

Sir, I am a resident occupying the flat. The builder's name in 3C Lotus Boulevard, Sector 100, Noida and I am not sure if it is a cooperative society.

Earlier, we didn't have prepaid meters but when AOA is formed, they converted all the meters to prepaid meters and installed Xenius App to provide us the balance amount. The point is, many societies do have prepaid meters but they don't pay maintenance in advance.

They use the disconnection of electricity as a tool to threaten to pay the maintenance even though their services are not good. They are already charging 3.7/SQFT (including water and grid charges) plus the electricity whereas their services are not at basic.

On asking maintenance bill they simply say it would come when it is generated and don't share any timeline. It's like "we will do whatever we want, you keep paying maintenance".

A few days back, our neighbors (who is a senior citizen) electricity was cut and they were asking to come and pay the bill at the office during lockdown. Then after one hour of multiple calls, they agreed to come to their house to take the money.

By the way, what do you mean by AOA?

AOA is a team formed by the residents after voting and they are taking care of the maintenance of the society with the help of third-party vendors. In Noida, most of the society is being taken care of by AOA (team of society residents).

What does A, O, and A stand for? What is its legal status? When the querist herself is not sure of the facts, how can third person make any meaningful suggestion?

A. O. A is 

Apartment owners association. 

I am facing the same issue of grid electricity cut for 5k negative balance in sector 93. 

The b. O. M has the right to charge interest and cut the d. G backup or intercom for default but should not be allowed to cut grid power since that amounts to extortion 

is OA registered?

If so what are the terms?
