We are staying in a society as tenants for the past one year. Our landloard is regular in paying his annual maintenance charges to the society. He under his rights can use all the facilitys provided by the society like the club house, etc. untill now even the tenants were allowed to use all the facilities which the landloard or the owners could use paying a nominal fees which was same for all. But recently the society committee has increased the fees for tenants by 500% though it still remains the same for the owners staying in the society. Is this legal? Can a society have different fees for owners and tenants even though the landloard is paying his due share of maintenance regularly?

It is the domain of the society to fix its fee for different types of persons however rates should be reasonable.

thank you sir for your reply. But can u kindly elaborate on the different type of persons. here i am talking about the differentiation between owners and the tenants who otherwise are paying the same maintanance. only the club house fees is differnt. 100/- for owners and 500/-for tenants.

Since you are using Club House facilities you will have pay as per society rules or bye-laws mentioned or such resolution passed by the commitee in this matter..
