Who decides loading percentage in super buildup area, and how to check weather builder is charging right superbuildup area while purchasing flat in Maharashtra. Because each and every builder charge differently on loading on carpet area, is there is any government rule or law regarding super buildup charges(loading) or area calculation.
because of less knowledge people get Cheated .

Super built-up area takes into account all the area under the common spaces -- the apartment's proportionate share of the lobby, staircase, elevator and the corridor outside the apartment.
The confusion of super built-up area arises over the fact that what is exactly included under this definition is left to the judgment of the builders. Some may even include the terrace, security room, electrical room and/or pump room. The cumulative total of these 'extras' is taken into account and divided by the number of apartments in proportion to their size.

check your agreement . it must be mentioning carpet area , built up area . ask builder what is superbuilt area he is charging . unfortunately no builder will give any thing in writing about super built area as agreement are made on carpet area only

well he has given you 822 square feet carpet area . the calculation of super built up area would depend on no of flats, lifts , staircase , pump room , lift room etc.
when you purchased flat you were aware that he was charging you super built up area . you should not have entered into agreement with builder . since agreement only mentions carpet area you cannot litigate in court as builder will say that i have charged on carpet area as mentioned in agreement .

If your builder has refused to provide you any certificate about carpet area and super area, you can also get that verified and certified by hiring some approved architect and discuss the matter with your builder, if you find any difference in his verbal statement and the charge made on you.

""I do agree with the specialized opinion of ajay."" These words of Mr. Makkad ,if not appreciated by me,i will be failing in my duty of preaching the shloka ,i cited,3query back,which reads::
" yuktiyuktam vacho graham baladapi shukadapi !
yuktiheenam vachastyajyam vridhadapi shukadapi!!"
That means..'whatever is consistent with right reasoning should be ACCEPTED,even though it comes from a boy or even from a parrot;
And whatever is inconsistent therewith ought to be REJECTED,although emanating from an old man or even from the great sage shree SHUKA himself.
