Will the service of CCTV system about power consumption, recording, maintenance, and back office support, be disproportionate to each individual flat owner strictly according to their area of flat?.Also can metering of the facility be possible, like electricity, etc., at each individual flat?

Usually such common facilities are shared equally irrespective of the area of the flats or number of their respective occupiers.
Hemant Agarwal (Expert) 02 September 2018
1. Depending on the clauses in the Societies /Association Approved Bye-Laws, normally the aggregate expenditure on CCTV system, shall have to be shared EQUALLY by all the Flat units (and not as per square feet wise).

You can benfit from the posts of Mr. Kishore Mehta, Mr. Hemant Agarwal.
Usually, since all occupants get equal access to common fascilities, all share expenses equally on all facilities of common usage.
A description to the effect might have been made in sale document as well.

The relevant Act, rules are available on state govt website.
If you are President or member fo elcted body you must be having the relevant enactments, bye laws framed in accordance with applicable enactments ..
Pursue these and relate.
e.g;
THE TAMIL NADU APARTMENT OWNERSHIP ACT, 1994 (Act No. VII of 1995)
;10,13, CHAPTER – V COMMON PROFITS, COMMON EXPENSES AND OTHR MATTERS

There are such very able counsels at each location.
Check for such counsels at LOCAL O/o Regsitrar, Civil courts, HC, …

Generally such capital expenditure is shared equally (in terms of number of flats and not area covered); however, it is to be decided by Managing Committee of the Society in terms of Bye-Laws adopted by the Society, State Cooperative Societies Act and Rules.
How you are concerned with the question, which appears to be an academic exercise and/or topic for debate amongst idle persons.
