ELECTION RIGHTS OF ASSOCIATE MEMBERS OF CHSCan an associate member of a co­operative housing society, whose name is second in the share certi�icate, stand for the election of the managing committee. If so, are there any formalities to be done? Can an associate member become an of�ice bearer of the society if elected to the managing committee?

— Samip Kenney, Andheri

An associate member is a person whose name

stands second or third and so on in the share

certi�icate. As per the New Model Bye-laws of 2014,

a person whose is the co-owner or joint owner of

the �lat only can be admitted as the associate

member.

Entries of the associate member in the share

certi�icate, in the statutory records like I form

register, J form register, share register, etc are the

conclusive evidence of having admitted as the

associate member.

Therefore, the Maharashtra State Co-operative

Election Authority has issued a clari�ication that, if

any person’s name is incorporated in the share

certi�icate as associate member, such an associate

member will be entitled to vote and contest in the

election to the Managing Committee. The returning

of�icer is not supposed to travel beyond the voter

list provided by the society and is approved by the

registrar.

The societies after adopting Bye-laws of 2014, need

to advice the associate member whose name stands

second or third without having any rights in the

property to acquire such rights as contemplated

- Expert speak -

CA. Ramesh S Prabhu

E­mail your queries related to any housing

issue and legal matter on [email protected]

under section 26 of t h e a m e n d e d M a h a r a s h t r a C o -operative Societies Act, 1960 within a prescribed period.

If such right, title and interest in the property is not acquired within the speci�ied time, the society may by passing an appropriate resolution remove such associate members name from the share certi�icate and other records.

Till names of such associate members are removed from the share certi�icate and other statutory records by adopting the necessary formalities and giving a proper opportunities, such associate members are entitled to vote and contest the election.

In order to contest the election, the associate member needs to submit form No. 10A (No objection certi�icate from the �irst member) as provided in the Bye-laws to contest the election to the managing committee. If such an associate member gets elected, he or she may become the of�ice bearer.

WHY CONVEYANCE IS A MUST

CA. Ramesh S PrabhuM- 9820106766

Most property owners feel their job is complete once the purchase formalities are over. But, obtaining conveyance is an equally important aspect home buyers often ignore. Ramesh S. Prabhu explains its signi�icance

There have been numerous

cases of home buyers being

unable to exercise a number of

rights on property, resulting

in issues between the property buyers and

builders. The reason behind the discrepancy is

often the fact that conveyance of the property has

not been obtained.

What is conveyance?

In real estate transaction, �lats are sold by the

builder under the Maharashtra Ownership Flats

Act, 1963. As per section 10 of MOFA, 1963, the

builders and the �lat owners register a co-

operative Housing Society under Maharashtra Co-

operative Societies Act, 1960 to manage the

complex by the �lat owners themselves. The main

objective of housing society is to obtain the

conveyance of land and building, maintain the

same and provide common services like water,

parking, security etc to the �lat owners as collective

legal entity.

The conveyance of land and building is done in

favour of the society as the individual �lat owners

cannot be conveyed the undivided right, title and

interest in the land, building and the common

areas. As per section 11 of MOFA read with Rule 9

within 4 months of registration of legal body of the

�lat purchasers are legally bound to convey the land

and the building to such legal entity.

Conveyance Deed

Conveyance Deed is a document in writing between

the vendor / seller / transferor and the purchaser /

transferee evidencing the transfer of right, title and

interest in the movable or immovable property in

favour of the purchaser / transferee or the legal

body formed by the �lat purchasers.

This document has to be executed by af�ixing

proper stamp duty as per applicable stamp act,

incorporating the legal provisions of the applicable

Acts such as Transfer of Property Act, 1882,

Registration Act 1908, Indian Contract Act, 1872,

Income Tax Act, 1961, Maharashtra Ownership

Flat Act, 1963 etc.

MSWA’s Housing Societies Review 10 March 2017

Objective of ConveyanceI To become legal owners Any movable/ immovable property ownership is identi�ied on the basis of title documents for example; immovable properties are recorded and identi�ied on the basis of Survey No., Hissa No. and such other identity marks in government records. When such identity marks are recorded in the title document (Conveyance Deed) and such documents are duly stamped and registered with appropriate authorities and such authorities notify the transfer of right, title and interest in the property in favour of purchaser / transferee, then it is conclusive evidence of ownership of such property.

ii) To make entries in government recordsWhen the property transactions are recorded in government records, it becomes conclusive evidence of ownership of property. To make entries in government records, a Conveyance Deed has to be executed as explained above. For example - Property card, 7/12 ledger extract (mutation entry), 6/12 ledger extract (hakkache patra – letter of derivation of rights)

Advantages of ConveyanceA) Getting the proper titleWhen the land and building is conveyed in the name of the purchaser / society, the purchaser /society gets proper title of the property which means the property gets transferred in his/its name. All future municipal tax bills are drawn in their names.

B) Retaining additional FSI/TDRA plot of land has a development potential in terms of Floor Space Index (FSI). The FSI in respect of a plot of land denotes the square meter area which can be constructed upon that plot of land. It varies depending upon the location and user zone of the plot. The bene�it of this F.S.I. can be availed by Housing Society only when conveyance of land and building is completed and transferred in favour of the Society.

C) Property will be free and marketable:On registration of the society, the possession of the land and building is vested with the society. The society starts maintaining the property as per the

provision of the registered bye-laws. However, the land and building continues to be in the name of or ig inal owner. Thus , when a part icular person/society has paid full consideration and is in possession of the property but the title documents are continued in the original owners' name, the purchaser will not have a free and marketable title on the said property. It is only after proper conveyance that the purchaser will derive free and marketable title over the property.

D) Loan can be raised by mortgageWhen the society wants to undertake major repairs and requires huge funds, the society would be looking for �inancial assistance from bank or other �inancial institution. If the property is standing in the original owners name and the Conveyance is pending, the loan will not be granted by the lender as the same cannot be mortgaged by the society.

E) Permission for reconstruction of propertyOnce the conveyance is completed, the society can obtain No objection Certi�icate for reconstruction of the building from the respective town planning sections of municipal authorities. If Conveyance is pending, the society may have to approach the o r i g i n a l o w n e r s f o r t h e i r c o n s e n t f o r reconstruction and the original owner may not agree to the proposal of the Society or the owner may not be available or may ask for additional compensation and delay the reconstruction proposal. When all the �lat owners have paid the full consideration to the builder, it is advisable to obtain the Conveyance at the earliest.

F) Construct additional �loors by TDRThe society can construct additional �loor by availing TDR subject to having load bearing / sustaining capacity. This is possible only when Conveyance is completed.

G) Receive compensation on development When Conveyance is completed, the society can reconstruct entire building with additional FSI and by purchasing TDR from others. If the land is located in the prime area, builders / developers wo u l d c o m e fo r wa rd w i t h a l l n e c e s s a r y permissions and also offer additional area to the exiting �lat owners.

They may also receive additional compensation. When the society is having additional FSI, the same may be transferred in the form of TDR and compensation for the same received. These are all possible only when Conveyance is completed; otherwise the entire bene�it will go to the owner / builder.

H) Complying with legal provision As per section 11 of Maharashtra Ownership Flat Act, 1963, a promoter shall take all the necessary steps to complete his title and convey the land and building in favour of the registered organisation of �lat purchasers. By completing the Conveyance, a

legal obligation on the part of builder will be

complete.

I) Attaining main objects of society registration

REDEVELOPMENT UNDER RERA

New Rules viz. the Maharashtra Real Estate (Regulation and Development) (Registration of Real Estate Projects, Registration of Real Estate agents, Rates of Interest and Disclosures on

stWebsite) Rules 2016 will come into force from 1 May 2017. People have many doubts in their mind considering to these rules. One among these is Redevelopment. Now-a-days Redevelopment is a booming issue in the Real Estate. People are doubtful that Redevelopment will cover in the RERA Act. But don't worry you have a remedy under RERA. Whether you have purchased a �lat in Redevelopment project or you are one of the original “Rehab Component” resident, you can approach the Real Estate Regulatory Authority of Maharashtra for legal relief and remedies.

When we talk about Redevelopment, it is composite Redevelopment. Existing people whom the �lats are going to be allotted and there is always new buyers. An Act provides for allottees. The building where the IOD has been received in the case of Redevelopment and there are some units which are required to be sold, they will be required to be registered. And one it is registered under the RERA all the grievances of the existing �lat owners or allottees will de�initely have a remedy and Regulatory Authority will have to hear them and give the necessary word to it.

RERA covers all types of stake holders. We are talking about promoters. Who is promoter? Promoter includes land owners. The land owner means in the case of Redevelopment , a housing

society. Who is giving the developer a right to construct and sale the �lat. If a society gives a contract to a wrong person and if he sales the �lat to an outsider, the consumer need to be protected. Therefore while choosing the developer, you should be very much careful and the land owner i.e. housing society is also cover under RERA.

What type of development is covered under RERA? Commercial, Residential, even if the plots are made and it is sold by the builder that is also covered. Very surprisingly the RERA also covered various Government agencies who are engaged in constructing and selling activities. Whether it is MHADA, BMC, CIDCO everybody is covered. If a housing society which going to be registered for purchase of giving the houses to the members even that society is also covered under RERA. The land owner is also considered part of the promoter.

In the case of Redevelopment what can happen is supposed in the expectation that they get 40% extra area. They have appoint a wrong developer. After developing he has booked more �lats, he has done lot of violations, the society later on if they appoint new developer, they may loose even 40%. They may get what they are already get it. Because that 40% extra may go into �illing of loss made by the wrong selection of the developer. So the society ones RERA come into effect they should be very careful while selecting the developer under RERA. As I said earlier even under the Redevelopment the existing members are called allottees.

Therefore they have remedies and they can be compensated. Similarly the early birds investors who have booked the �lats in the Redevelopment naturally they are consumers and they are also covered under RERA the existing members who are given certain area as a free component and over and above if they are able to purchase 5 sq.ft. to 10 sq.ft. extra area naturally they are also coming as a

MSWA Activities – February - 2017n the wake of Maharashtra Government's Idecision for forming of a Committee for making study based recommendations for a separate

chapter on age-old Maharashtra Societies Act, 1960, in which MSWA Chairman has been appointed due to his expertise therein as an Active Member in the Committee thereof, your Association has commenced to hold series of meetings on Better Co-operative Housing Law in 2-Tier cities across the State over the next three

ndmonths. To begin with on 2 March 2017 an event has been organized in Aurangabad and thereafter that will be taken to other cities in Maharashtra. Your active participation with suggestions / objections etc are crucial and does really matter. The sole purpose of these meetings is to awaken and empower the residents in the Housing Societies who are hardly aware of their own rights, its Rules / Regulations etc and also help smooth running of the Society Management thereof.

FAQs on SALE AND PURCHASE OF

IMMOVABLE PROPERTY

Adv. Anisha Shastri

022 - 42551439Q.1. What are the stages involved in a transfer of

immovable property by sale and / or purchase?

Ans.

NEGOTIATION STAGE : Before an Agreement for

Sale is made, the parties; i.e., the Vendors and the

Purchasers negotiate the consideration &

obligations / responsibilities of each party for the

sale of the property; i.e., they basically discuss all

the commercial terms involved in the transaction.

In India, oral agreements are also recognized to an

extent; however, the same is not recognized in

various countries. At times, the realtors are

required to testify the oral agreements.

CONTRACTUAL STAGE :

A g r e e m e n t f o r S a l e / M e m o r a n d u m o f

Understanding/ Letter of Intent Section 54 of

the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, de�ines a

“Contract for Sale” as a contract that a sale of

such property shall take place on terms and

conditions as stated in the Agreement entered

into between the parties.

An Agreement for Sale/Memorandum of

Understanding/Letter of Intent / Agreement to

sell do not, by itself, create any interest in or

charge on, such property. It is a document

setting out the commercial terms between the

parties and obligation for the sale/purchase of

the property.

Thus, such a document creates a right to obtain

another document in the form of a sale deed to

be registered in accordance with law.

The document creates a right in personam and

not in estate. Such personal right created against

the vendor to obtain speci�ic performance can

ultimately bind any subsequent Purchaser who

obtains the transfer of property with notice of

the Agreement for Sale. This document creates

binding between the parties to complete the

transaction as may be consummated therein.

Escrow : Escrow is a legal

arrangement whereby an

asset such as funds, deed of

title or other instrument between two parties is

delivered to a third party (called an Escrow

Agent), to be held in trust or otherwise pending

a contingency or the ful�ilment of a condition or

conditions in a contract. Upon that event

occurring, the Escrow Agent will deliver the

asset to the proper recipient, otherwise the

Escrow Agent is bound by his or her �iduciary

duty to maintain and safeguard the escrow

account. Under this arrangement usually the

Escrow Agent enters into an Agreement

between the parties and follows the guidelines

stated in the said Agreement.

TITLE INVESTIGATION STAGE

Public Notice : The lawyers of the Purchasers

give a Public Notice in leading newspapers

giving a description of the property and inviting

objections/claim from the public in relation to

the sale/acquisition of any rights in the said

property.

Veri�ication of Title

Usually lawyers of the Purchasers conduct a title

veri�ication of the property after inspecting the

original title documents of the property.

Searches are made in the of�ices of Government

records or other revenue authorities. The

aforesaid exercises are conducted in- order to

verify whether there are any mortgages/

charges and / or encumbrances created or any

other claims are subsisting or whether any lis

pendens notice is registered and whether the

property stands in the name of the Vendor in the

Government records.

After the title has been investigated and

accepted as 'marketable' , the document of

transfer is prepared, approved and executed by

the Parties. In general where a huge transaction

is concerned the Purchasers may demand for a title certi�icate from the Vendors Lawyer.

PAYMENT OF STAMP DUTY: Stamp duty is a State Government tax which is payable when an immovable property is sold/purchased by the party who has agreed to bear the same under the contract . Stamp duty is calculated on the consideration mentioned in the document or True Market Value, whichever is higher. Each State and territory has a different Stamp Act and therefore the stamp duty payment varies from State to State and time to time.

The Market Value is determined as per the Ready Reckoner, which is revised every year by the Government. The Bombay Stamp Act, 1958 provides that the amount of stamp duty calculated for a transaction of conveyance shall be as per the provisions of Article 25 in Schedule I.

The documents are required to be stamped prior to the execution of the same. The Stamp Act provides that the documents can be stamped within 24 hours from the date of execution.

COMPLETION STAGE : This Stage involves the execution of the Sale Deed/ Deed of Conveyance/ Deed of Transfer. The sale (transfer) deed is the most essential document because it is a legal document signed and delivered by the parties to effect transfer of property, which becomes a title document of the Purchaser. At this moment the Vendor hands over lawful and physical possession of the property and all the original title documents of the property to the Purchaser. In case of immovable property all the Sale Deed/Deed of Conveyance/ Deed of Transfer are required to be registered with the of�ice of the Sub-Registrar of Assurances.

POST-COMPLETION STAGE

Attornment of Tenancy In the event, a property sold/purchased which is subject to the tenants occupying the same then the Vendor is required to have a letter of attornment signed by all the tenants for recognising the Purchaser as their Landlord in place of the Vendor.

Adjustment of Accounts: The parties require to adjust their account such as the Purchaser paying consideration to the Vendor and if required the same may be paid by the Purchaser to the Vendor after deducting amounts which are due and payable by the Vendor till the date of the transfer of property.

Transfer of Property in Government Records : Pursuant to the registration of the transfer documents, the Purchaser is required to incorporate his name in Government Records such as Property Registered Card or such other as may be required.

REGISTRATION OF DOCUMENTSSection 54 of the Transfer of Property Act states that in case of a tangible immovable property of the value of ^ 100 and upwards, the Sale Deed must be compulsorily registered. Section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908 states that any non-testamentary instruments which purport or operate to create, declare, assign, limit or extinguish, whether in present or in future, any right , title or interest , whether vested or contingent, of the value of ? 100 and upwards, to or i n a ny i m m ova b l e p ro p e r t y, n e e d t o b e compulsorily registered.

The documents containing contracts to transfer for consideration, an immovable property for the purpose of Section 53A of Transfer of Property Act, 1882 shall be registered if they have been executed on or after commencement of the Registration and other Related Laws (Amendment Act, 2001). The limitation for registering a document is 4 months from the date of execution of such document.

In case of immovable property all the Sale Deed/ Deed of Conveyance/Deed of Transfer are required to be registered with the of�ice of the Sub-Registrar of Assurances. The law gives no protection to a person claiming a right under an unregistered alleged sale. Currently the Registration fee is 1% of the market value of the property or Rs. 30,000 whichever less. A noti�ication was issued to remove the cap of Rs. 30,000/- with effect from February 17, 2009 but was later rescinded by the State Government as per the Times of India news report dated 28th February, 2009.

WHATSAPP QUESTION AND ANSWERS

Q. 1. Our building is at Nallasopara east. Builder

has sold out �lat before 2 years. He has not yet

given possession letter but �lat owner are living

there. Now he is not collecting maintenance

after 18 month. Also he is not providing good

service.

Please guide on following matter.1. Possession letter is pending., 2. O. C. is not yet

received., 3. No municipal water connection., 4.

No conveyance of land.

There are three building in combined plot area.

One building has formed society. Now builder is

asking us to support to form society. Can we co

operate him?

Ans by CA Prabhu Ramesh

It is advisable to form a society and cooperate the

builder in registration of society.

At the time of society formation , the builder will be

providing the af�idavit and undertaking to the

registrar about handed over the possession. After

the society is formed, even f you do not receive

separate possession letter from the builder it does

not affect.

Regarding the pending OC, you may �ile a complaint

before the Real Estate Regulatory Authority after

1st May 2017

The liability of providing the OC on the builder

continue , even after the registration of the society.

Regarding municipal water, after the society is

registered, you may apply to the municipal

corporation and get the water connection on

humanitarian ground or you may now follow up

with Builder to get water connection.

if nothing works by 1st May, you may proceed against builder on account of this before regular authority.

After the expiry of four months from the date of registration of society , if conveyance is not granted, we may apply under deemed conveyance. Presently, we can get deemed conveyance only after getting OC.

It is better to get the society registered, and then for all three issues like water connection , OC and conveyance before regulatory Authority after 1st May2017. On 1st May 2017 onwards real estate regulatory Authirity shall start functioning.

Q. 2. Can housing society AGM or MC take decision to charge the parking charges with back effect from 2012.

Ans by CA Prabhu Ramesh

Levy of any charges has to be decided in the General Body Meeting. Naturally effective dates can be decided by the General Body Meeting. Normally any charges have to be prospective. If by majority the general body meeting decides to charge respectively, it can be done. There is no provision under law not to Levy charge respectively.

Q. 3. Ours is a complex of 8 housing society duly registered. Now we want to form Federation and go for Deemed Conveyance. But only 6 soc are ready for and other 2 SOC are not opting for Federation. CAN WE FORM FEDERATION AND PROCEED FOR DEEMED CONVEYANCE. WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO OTHER TWO SOC NOT OPTING FOR FEDERATION.

Ans by CA Prabhu Ramesh

To register a Federation , we need minimum 5 societies. In case, we get cooperation from only 4 societies, we have to approach the cooperative minister u/s 157 to get special order to register the federation with 4 societies.

Regarding the conveyance, it is advisable to proceed to obtain the same in the name of individual societies, if other societies do not join for formation of federation and also do not cooperate for obtaining the conveyance in the name of Federation.

Q. 4. Needed one Opinion:: Can WhatsApp c o m m u n i c a t i o n f o r s e n d i n g o f � i c i a l information like renewal of fees of industry association or body or sending notice of M e e t i n g s b e c o n s i d e r l e g a l m o d e o f communication..

Ans by CA.Ramesh Prabhu

As per the Latest Model Bye laws 2014, communication to the members on their registered email is considered to be of�icial communication. Whatsapp and sms communication is an add on services but can never be considered as of�icial communication for calling the meeting or intimating about increase in charges etc....

Q. 5. I have some query your guidance will be highly appreciated.1) Can Housing Society include major Repair fund collecting monthly basis in monthly bill under separate head.2) Can society adjust monthly payment against previous dues charged as interest on major repair fund after passing resolution if yes under which bye law it is possible ?

By adjusting this amount against previous balance, monthly maintenance payment become overdue and member become defaulter.

Can Housing Society follow such rules. Please guide me as I am the victim of such issues. I paid the entire principal amount together before commencement of the work.

Ans by CA Prabhu Ramesh

All levy of charges are approved in the General body meeting. The bye laws also provide for raising funds from society under various heads. Once the

due date for payment is decided by the society in its general body meeting, whether the repairs are started or not , the contribution has to be paid as per the bill. society is legal is adjusting the payment towards earlier dues of interest. There is no provision in the bye laws , how the recoveries have to be adjusted. Therefore, if society adopts to adjust with earlier dues of interest, it is legal.

Q. 6. Is it compulsory to �ile Nomination Applications Form by the member, himself to the M. C. or after demise of the said member, it's nominee have legal right to apply for his nomination along with original Nomination Application Form to the m. c.

Vimal JainAns by Mr. Jagdish G

*The act of �iling Nomination is to be carried out only during the lifetime of the Owner-member-Nominator & proper acknowledgement & recording of the same in the Society records shud be con�irmed in writing. Filing of Nomination is not mandatory, but it helps the Society to deal with a particular person, where there is no legal disposition of the property, in case of the death of the Owner member.

However after the death of the nominator the Nominee must enrol himself/herself as the member & get the �lat & shares transmitted to himself/ herself for a limited purpose & get all the true & legal heirs of the deceased member on the record of the Society. A Nominee-member shall have no interest in property & he just acts like a caretaker. He/She has no rights to further nominate, nor sell, mortgage, transfer, give the �lat on leave & license/ lease or create third party rights. The position has to be resolved by the legal heirs of the deceased member, either by mutual agreement or thru civil/high court.

AHARASHTRA is arguably India's most progressive state, always striving to improve Mitself. We are happy to inform you that our state is poised to take a huge leap forward for creating a better legislative and administrative environment for housing. Favourable

amendments are being considered in Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act 1960.

The state government has constituted a committee for proposing changes for streamlining of sections relating to housing in the MCS Act 1960, and also, introducing new features in the Act for "ease of doing business", including transfer of title and membership of �lat, redevelopment, etc.

The state government is very keen that the law must be clear-cut and unambiguous to reduce scope for disputes and litigation. Being part of this committee, we have undertaken a major exercise of suggesting appropriate changes based on opinions of all the stakeholders i.e. managing committee members, ordinary members, associate members, auditors, etc. You may share your experiences with MCS Act, and suggest changes in the Act, by emailing us on [email protected] or sending Whatsapp on7045599702.

We look forward to your valuable inputs for framing a better legislation for cooperative housing sector.
