My flat is in seawoods east. I purchased a flat around in 2007. When the society is under the builder’s hand then he kept maintenance charge at per sq/ft. But after hand over of building, Committee is appointed by the members, then they kept maintenance charges at lumsum basis, which is unequal.
Just like for single bedroom 620 sq/ft they are charging RS-1700 on other hand the double bedroom got 940 sq/ft they are charging RS-1800 and three bedroom 1050 sp/ft they charging RS-2050, in spite of this the member of committee of the society treating like rud manner. Please reply fast of above problems
