West Bengal Apartment Ownership Act, 1972, to enable housing associations to form a federation, to take care of the maintenance and management of common areas and facilities for all in an apartment society. In your case you can certainly do that and form the association and take over the control and do it more democratic way. Many of my clients got relief this way. All the best and regards

Yes. You can form a flat owners Association with the combined application from all the present owners. You will however, need the Sanctioned Building plan and copies of the Conveyance Deeds of all the flat owners.
