• Share Certificate

My father passed away in May 2021. As I'm the only son I submitted the documents to change the ownership of the flat to my name. The society through their lawyers checked all the documents and they all were accurate. In November 2021 my name appeared on the Monthly Maintenance Bill. On 12 December 2021 in the AGM, my new membership was confirmed through legal heir. On 14th December I submitted the Share Certificate to endorse the same. Since, then I have not received the Share Certificate. Every time I go to the society office ask for the Share Certificate, I get a reply from society manager "Abhi yeh baaki hai woh baaki ह
Hai". Last time he behaved very rudely. He asked me "tumko kya loan lena hai jo baar baar aate ho" Please advice

If they unnecessarily delay the process, issue them a legal notice through a local lawyer. In case of unsatisfactory response, you may proceed to file a suit.

  1. You can move the cooperative court or consumer court against the housing society for refusal and/or unreasonable delay in giving you the share certificate. Of the two options stated, which would suit your purpose can best be adviced, only after an exhaustive consultation session with you.  
  2. You need to visit me for the exhaustive consultation. I'm willing to take up the litigation and lead it to it's logical conclusion. 
  3. I'm based in Mumbai /NaviMumbai just as you are. So it shouldn't be much difficult for you to visit me.

- As per law, a society has no legal authority, to issue moral, ethical and social diktats to its residents.
- Further, Society by law and resolutions must be limited to the mandate of governing the society’s affairs and nothing more.

- Since, the membership is confirmed in the AGM , then society cannot delay in issuing the share certificate and the said act is against the rules of society Act

- You can send a legal notice for getting the share certificate , and if no response then file a compliant before the Registrar of Society.

You issue a letter to the society about this and demand the share certificate immediately giving a time limit.

After that you can resort to legal action by first issuing a legal notice demanding the requirement.

If there is no response to that then you may drag the society to the consume forum for deficiency in service and also for compensation for their lethargic attitude and reckless behavior.
