We are in an apartment of 14 units in chennai. Currently out of 14 units, owners reside in 4 units. As far as we know, the association is not registered. For the past few years, in the name of volunteers, the common maitainence activities are carried out by 3 owners leaving the 1 owner(us) isolated. For instance, from fixing monthly maintenance charges to buying common util items like motor is arbitrary decided without discussing with us or any deliberation.Hence, we have decided not to set any precedence by paying anything additional(for the decisions made by this group)However, the said group is insisting us to pay pending money and have a threatening attitude. Not sure about the take of other non resident owners on this issue.
We have sent several commnitations about this practice by the said group to all apartment owners and to register the association and elect the office bearers,which will bring accountability and transparency. They seems to be least interested.
Need your advice on where it stands legally and what is the way forward.
Thanks
