Hi,
we have bought our house in 1999 and we had a terrace attached to our flat.It is a 3 floor building and we stays at 3rd floor with a attached terrace.We have paid rs.75,000 to the builder for the terrace and builder has given a document stating that terrace has been sold to us.Also in our sales agreement the terrace portion has been shown assigned in our room's map(signed by builder).There is only on entrance to terrace i,.e from our flat.But in the carpet area section of agreement details onterrace flat is not mentioned.

Q's:

1. Do we need to pay any property tax for this terrace?
2. Do we need to have some legal agreement prepared to be signed by builder or the document stating that this terrace has been sold(& belongs to us) is suffix.

Kindly suggest any legal process (affidavit)is required to be done to be on solid proof as per all ACT's.
Please revert.

1. If this forms part of your flat then you are liable to pay property tax.

2. Though map is an evidence to this effect but legally it shall be more effective if any specific agreement/contract is executed between the builder and you to this effect to bound both the parties in future.

Your terrace is more like the appurtunances attached to your flat hence you are also liable for paying taxes.
