Can a co-op housing soc have different parking charges for owners and tenants ?

sanjay jain (Querist) 10 March 2015 This query is : Resolved
I have a open car parking space in a society bought from the developer. The society parking charges Rs 500 quaterly if used by the owner, Rs 1000 if used by another member of the society and Rs 6000 if used by a tenant. I have bought the car park from the developer but i am not using it.

The society insists me to give my parking to another member of the society to use for rs1000 but since i have a friend staying in the society who is a tenant, he has rented some other members flat and he is using my parking. The society does not want me to give my parking space to the tenant and hence is charging me Rs 6000.

I can understand if they charge double 100 % of what they are charging to members, but this is a lot of money as it comes upto Rs 24000 annually. Are there any rules governing this issue?

Where is the Housing Society situated?

Your query does not fall within the purview of Intellectual Property Rights, as you have categorised.

However, you have to check the provisions made in the society's byelaws. If there is any such provision and you have any objection, you may better raise your objection during agm or float a resolution for amendment of the byelaws. The requisite majority can pass the resolution for amendment.

Refer the bye laws of the society and resolutions passed by the AGM. If any thing against lodge complaint with the Registrar of societies.

it appears that parking charges are arbitrarily fixed by society .

please clarify whether any such resolution was placed in agenda and passed in AGM ?

whether there is sufficient parking space for all members?

please note that builder has no powers to sell car parking slots

You must go through the minutes and resolutions passed in this regard during AGM of the society earlier and can bring a motion to scrap the same in the next meeting or atleast revise it.
