Dear Sirs,
I bought a flat from previous member which is combination of 2 flats. Since begining, builder sold as 3-BHK flat with entire construction/aminities as single flat. Aminities means single electric meter/door/kitchen/gas conn etc. Even share certificates are for one flat only.
There is single agreement indicating 3 bhk plan but 1st page indicates 2 flat numbers.
BMC approved plan shows 2 flats.
in our building there are flats which are twice bigger in area than me but are registered as single flat in BMC approved plan. They pay charges for 1 flat where as society charges me for 2 flats.
Finally i am the only one who pays double the charges compared to all other members; EVEN COMPARED TO FLATS MUCH BIGGER IN AREA THAN ME.
Bye-law 3(vi) does not say flat means as per BMC approved plan. It says "Flat means a separate and self contained set of premises used for residence".
Therefore according to me, BMC approved plan cannot be basis for double monthly charges. otherwise lawmakers could have simply replaced definition of flat in bye-laws as municipality approved plan.
According to me, present bye-law definition is perfect and removes disparity of smaller flats paying more than bigger flats.
Kindly give me your opinion
1> Can i get my plan approved in BMC as single flat?
1> kindly advise me the CHS office which can give me official advice about this.
Thanks in advance
