Dear client,

Sorry to hear about your situation. Property rights and building codes are controlled by housing society bylaws and local municipal laws. Although it's a good idea to work with the society, you are usually not needed to provide any more paperwork than what is necessary by law. The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 (RERA), which describes the rights and responsibilities of both builders and buyers, is a legal resource that you can consult. Your development should be regarded as lawful if it follows the original building design and has municipal approval. Under the Co-operative Societies Act, you may pursue legal recourse if members of the society harass or hinder you. The Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act, for instance, forbids deliberate hindrance of legally permitted operations when it comes to section 91.

Hope this helps you.

If they have issued a legal notice, you may see what are the allegations they have leveled against you and under what provisions of law they demand the documents as well as mentioned that the renovation is not permissible.

You issue a proper reply notice denying their allegations and file a suit for permanent injunction against them restraining them from creating obstacles towards the renovation work and from interfering in your peaceful enjoyment of the property.

You may discuss with your advocate and proceed as suggested.

Furnish all documents in your possession 

2) file suit seek injunction restraining g society from creating obstacles in completing renovation work 

3) take the plea that no structural alterations have been carried out 

- 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.

- Further, every individual member has sole ownership rights over his property, and no one including a housing society has right to stop the renovation work .

- Hence, the said act of society is against the law , and hence you can file a complaint before the Registrar against the society.

- Further, you can get restrain order from the court after filing an Injunction suit against the society and the said members.
