Dear Sir, We have a Resident Welfare Association in our building which is formed by by non-owners and Owners in Bangalore. The RWA is collecting Maintenance from its members since August of last year. Their monthly collection itself is more than 1 lakh per month. I am asking official receipt from the Assn for the Maintenance charges paid by me every month thru cheque. They have denied issuing the Official receipt for me. Orally they are telling it attracts service Tax so they do not want to issue the receipt.The Assn is not registered and unofficially they have formed the assn without any bye-laws. What is the course of action from our side ? How can we stop this black money creation in our society ? Please specify the detailed procedure of action.

1. A "unregistered" association or society, is a null & void body, for "any & all" legal purposes.
2. Demand /Payment to such unregistered body cannot have any such legal consequences, is a criminal offence and can be safely flushed down the sewage drain.
