Builder would have have one vote and not 50 votes
Hi, We have an RWA elections coming. Our association is formed under the KOA 1972 act. The builder has some 50 unsold flats in his name. How many votes can the builder cast? Is it 1 or 50? The property is based in Bangalore

Dear Cleint,
No member of any society shall have more than one vote in its affairs; and every powers of right to vote shall be exercised personally, and not by proxy.
Only if unsold flats are registered in their names they will get one vote per flat. Otherwise they are not owners.
The builder can be a member of the association since he has flats in his name.
However if all the unsold flats are in a single name then that person is entitled to cast a single vote only in the RWA elections.
