Hi
Maintenance charges are to be paid by the owner irrespective of whether the flat is occupied or not.
But club charges are payable depending on individual agreements between Resident welfare association and flat owners.
Please check your society bye laws as it might have some clauses to exclude unoccupied flats from payment of club charges.
