Sir, there was a ruling of Hon'ble Supreme Court in Civil Appeal No. 2544 of 2010 in which it was stated that open to the sky parking area or stilted portion usable as parking space is not sellable independently or along with a flat. I shall be grateful if it is clarified that -
1. Whether this judgement is applicable in residential societies located in Maharashtra State only, and
2. In the approved lay out plan of any society, if some portion is shown as approved open car parking area after this judgement, can it be sold?
