Hi,
i have 2 four wheeler, one vehicle is parked in open society area and Society is not allowing 2nd car parking, in spite of available space. also they are saying i cannot interchange vehicle and only one Vehicle with registered vehicle will be allowed.
my question is following:
1. Can i go legal, in allowing society for 2nd car park.?.
2. if i have one car park, i shd be allowed to park any of two vehicle any any give point in time?
look forward to legal perspective on Society by laws.

In a housing society/apartment association, each owner/member shall be entitled to one car parking as per the sale deed and as per approved plan.
The RWA must have a list of vehicles that will be parked, and residents/vehicle owners must submit a copy of the RC book with their application form.
No member should be allowed to park more than one vehicle in a single parking space. Any requests for a second slot can be made on a yearly basis, depending on the availability of parking spaces.
Section 84 of the MOFA requires every member with a vehicle parking slot to pay an annual charge to the society, which is finalised at the society's general body meeting.
Security guards should be given strict instructions on guest/visitor parking rules; according to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation, a building should allow at least 5% space for visitor parking.
