  8. Dear Yazdi Sir,

    Ours is type D Society. 3/4 members had appealed the society to eliminate 3 members who were either inactive or incapacitated. Our Secretary today put a notice on the notice board that a member (whose name he mentioned) has been inducted in the committee to strengthen the Committee. Is this the right way to elect? He has not called the committee meeting for this purpose.

    Thanks Sir

  11. Dear Sir,

    Where is the office of SCEA ? How can one request them to start election process ? We have 38 members in our society. Please suggest.

  12. Sir,
    I wish to know of procedures followed when any major work is to be carried out in a housing society , viz procedure of floating tenders .
    My Society is insisting on issuing new additional share certificate , which they claim is mandatory according to the new byelaws , we were issued 5 shares of 50 each in 1990 , is this legal .
    Also Car Shed made has not been given approval by BMC , can I refuse payment ,I don’t own a car

  13. Sir actually I want to say that recently an election has been occurred in my society and I was the candidate too of school category. I opposition of me there was only 1 person of school category. After the results cam I lose . The opposition of me got a huge vote coz they were having one whole group of 15 people of only one logo . So sir I want to ask that can the opposition of me then shifted to general category . Is this a rule

  14. Dear Sir,

    Please can you advise whether the Companies Act is applicable for filing nomination in an election in a registered housing society in India( Ltd co)? Is there any such rule that one has to pay Rs 1 lac for filing nomination in election in a registered housing association? It is burdensome for people to pay that money for voluntary community services. Please can you throw some lights on this issue as soon as possible?

    Our housing society BOD (which is registered as a ltd company) told us no one can participate in the election of the committee unless Rs 1 lac is deposited by each person as per Companies Act. If a candidate doesn’t get 25% vote, the entire money is forfeited. We have few senior people who are retired, however, willing to work voluntarily for the society and depositing Rs 1 lac is burdensome for them.

    If there is any such rule, can it be changed by EOGM or any other easier process?

    Please advise.
