This query is : Resolved
The following issue is about a mall located in Oshiwara, Andheri. The builder has sold off almost 85% of the shops and taken two years of advance maintenance i.e one years advance and 12 post dated cheques. The builder has not paid property taxes right from 2014 for which he has already received money from the owners. Apart from this the central airconditiong does not work in major areas of the mall and the shops in it. Due to non payment to housekeeping and security the condition of the mall is going from bad to worse. Please advice what should be done by we owners to take action against the builder. Can we form a society of the owners and take handover from the builder. Respected members of this group please give your valuable suggestions.
Thanking you
