• Related to roof right

I have a bought a builder floor at upper ground in Shahdara Delhi in Nov 2013. Builder has taken water connection charge and electric charge from each owner. He provided separate electric connection but one water connection. Now I want to take separate water connection but forth floor owners not allowing to do so as they have roof right. Can we put separate water tank on fourth floor.

If the same has not been provided by the builder then you can not install a fresh water tank.

If however, all the other members gives NOC with regards to the same then you can install the water tank.

You need permission from muncipal corporation to install separate water tank on top floor

Further consent of fourth floor owner would be necessary

You can not ask for the refund, since you agreed to this condition in 2013 you can not resile at this juncture.

If the builder has built a flat in the parking area then move an application with regards to this in the authorities and ask for its demolition.

SC has given clear guidelines that the parking area can not be used for any other purpose.

That depends on the agreement between the builder and the owner of the 4th floor that he/she can construct anything or not.

Construction of flat on parking is illegal

Complain to muncipal corporation against illegal construction

3) for construction on roof permission of other flat owners is necessary

If they have been specifically given the roof rights in terms of their sale deed, you necessarily need to take their permission before installing the water tank on the roof. You may peruse their sale deed to find as to whether the roof rights given to them are absolute or conditional.

The builder must have only taken a contribution from all the buyers against the single water supply/connection taken for the entire building.

Any sort of construction in the parking is illegal because encroachment of common spaces is impermissble under the building bye laws. Write to the concerned local authority for demolition of this illegal flat and for taking action against your builder.

If the plan has been sanctioned for 4 floors by the DDA then the 5th floor can not be constructed.

Sought an RTI and see what permission has been given by the authorities.

Any floor constructed/erected in excess of the number of floors approved, shall be illegal.

Thus, if only four floors are approved for your building, the 5th floor can never be constructed.

Sir,

To property answer the question, we need to go through your sale deed. The terms and conditions can then only be ascertained. Often accesibility and other terms are classified.
