Parking charges in society which is newly registered. In total 220 flats out of 3 towers of 14 storeys. Society in general meeting decided to charge parking charges ie is Rs 300 for four wheels and 150 for two wheels only from tenants. Owners will not have to pay anything. The maintanence clause in leave license agreement does not specify about parking anywhere.
I wish to know whether it is correct by law to charge only tenants. If NO pls share the provision or section which I can refer to society when they forces me to pay it.

society can only charge non occupancy charges ie 10%of maintenance bills . no separate parking charges can be charged from tenants

As per law, tenant steps into the shoes of the owner and SHALL have all the rights and duties of the owner vis-a-vis the association. It will be illegal for the assiocistion to fleece any tenant further. The tenant is having all rights of parking which is allotted to thr owner.

Irregular charging of parking charges from tenants in such way. Non occupancy charges can be taken with maintenance up to permissible extent.

Any such bye-law demanding parking charges from tenant or passed by a resolution, is illegal. The matter can be taken up with the association challenging its validity and powers to implement such irregular step.
