Society not following due processes in financial dealing
07-Feb-2025 (In Property Law)
Recently I filed an RTI asking for a copy of approved bye laws of my society and they said that there are no copies of approved bye laws with them. They are collecting maintenance charges and other charges without sending reports to the registrar. Does this account for financial offence? Cn complaint be registered against them?
Yes, you can take legal action against the society if they are collecting maintenance charges and other fees without following proper procedures. As per cooperative housing society laws, every registered society must have a set of approved bye-laws, and they should be available for members upon request. If they refuse to provide them, you can approach the registrar of cooperative societies for redressal.
Additionally, if they are collecting money without proper accounting or submission to the registrar, this could amount to financial irregularities. You may file a complaint with the registrar, and if necessary, approach the consumer court or even lodge a police complaint under financial misconduct laws
