This query is : Resolved
i am from surat stating in a 4 storeyed building having 8 flats in all. we have so far not formed any co-op. society as such. we have been staying here from the last 6 years. we have received a notice from the city talati's office that according to the revised rate, we have to pay an amt. of Rs.12495 (land mehsul revised rate) and Rs.3305 (education charge). this is for the last 18 yrs. and the notice is in the name of the original landowner. my question is who is responsible or the payment--whether it is the builder from whom we purchased the flat or dowe have to pay it?

Dear Shalini
In my view I will suggest you to pay the dues after mutation of the flat and legally your liability will be counted from the date when you all purchased the same.

All the liabiliites on the proerty till it is sold by the ownrs and Builders shall be paid by the Ownrs/builders . It is due since 18 years / out the said 18 years you have to pay for the perid of 6 years only i.e;- from the date of your purchase . Teh same may be informed to the Builder/ Owners and request them to pay for the 12 years period and balance 6 years has to be paid by the purchasers . It is required to get the proerty mutated in your names , as per the local Laws

It is correct to say that all the dues on the property till it is sold, seller is liable to pay,if contrary was not agreed at the time of sale deed ( you must read the sale deed carefully in this reference).If there is no terms and condition in this regard, You must send a legal notice to the seller requesting him to pay the dues in a stipulated time(with in a week or as suggested by your lawyer).If he does not pay the same with in stipulated period.You must pay all the dues to the authority.Same can be recovered from the seller in a money recovery suit.If you do not pays to the authority. Authority has a right to recover the same from the proerty.

Mr Sarin!
You right the Payment can not be stopped by the Purchaser , it has to be paid and collected from the Vednros.
