Tax payment to MHADA post allotment & before society formation


07-Aug-2023 (In Property Law)
I purchased a MHADA flat in Byculla in 2021. The seller got the possession in 09/2014 & paid MHADA maintenance from 09/2014 to 08/2015. The society of the building was formed in 09/2016 which started collecting maintenance by themselves from that onwards. My questions w.r.t 'Payment pending to MHADA from 09/2015 to 08/2016 (before society formation)' are as below: 1. Who will pay this amount? Me or the seller? 2. Whom to pay this amount? MHADA or Society? 3. How to pay this amount OFFLINE?

In an ideal situation the past maintenance has to be borne and paid by the first allottee / purchaser. The maintenance so paid has to be furnished to the Society for records and recovery and arrears as the case may be, considering the balances. This amount may be collected by the Society and paid collectively Flat wise or also by the present owner as the case may be.
