Under the Indian Cooperative Societies Act, the society’s bye-laws likely restrict commercial use of flats. You can address this by issuing a notice to the residents violating the bye-laws, followed by disciplinary action if they refuse to comply. It is important to address the issue based on the bye-laws and not discriminate against the doctor based on their profession.

My father, as the head of our joint family, bought a property. He made a registered will leaving this property to me, stating it was purchased using his and my mother’s funds. For the past six years, the income from this property has been included in my father’s personal income tax returns, while no separate tax returns were filed for the joint family. I gifted this property to my wife through the will, making it her personal property. Could my brother claim a share in this property in the future?

I’m looking for advice on how to formally renounce any inherited property or assets from my family in the future.

My father, who sadly passed away, had three sons, one who is no longer with us, and two daughters, including me. He owned a house worth roughly 3-4 Lakhs, but didn’t leave a will. My younger brother is currently living there and wants ownership. What is my rightful share in the property as a daughter?

My grandmother was an only child, and my father, who had limited means, lived with my grandparents and helped manage their ancestral property. However, my brother forged a will in 1996, claiming the entire property for himself and forging my grandfather’s signature. This property wasn’t earned by my grandfather, it was passed down through generations. My grandfather passed away in 1998, and my father in 2008. My mother, who is still living, believes we daughters should also inherit the property. Can we legally challenge the forged will with my mother’s support?

My builder in Panvel has completed 80% of my flat’s construction. I’ve paid 80% of the price (around 10 lakhs) and the sale agreement is registered. However, this builder has another project where people have complained to the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) in Maharashtra. The EOW arrested the builder and his directors, who are now in judicial custody. The EOW has also sealed the builder’s office. Will the EOW seal our building? All the flats in our building are sold and registered. What can I do?

Previous Article A builder promised an 18-floor apartment complex in India. Three months before completion, they suddenly announced a 22-floor building, delaying the project by 18 months. The buyer’s registration costs skyrocketed due to the changes. The agreement included a clause allowing the builder to decrease the undivided land share at their discretion. The delay was blamed on sand shortages, and the builder refused to compensate for the 4 additional floors, offering only 3 rupees per square foot for 9 months of the delay. To accommodate the extra 4 floors, they also reduced amenities like open space, replacing it with car parking for the additional 72 apartments. Can a buyer seek increased compensation in consumer court to cover these additional costs?
Next Article In 2009, we, a group of 20 families, signed a notarized agreement with a builder for a G+2 building on our own land. The agreement included an extra 20 square feet per flat, which was granted on a temporary basis. However, at the time, the builder lacked ownership, conveyance rights, and BMC approval. We trusted him and vacated our homes, only to have them demolished later. The builder didn’t begin construction until 2015. Now, he has an approved plan for a G+7 building. Can we ask him to allocate us a larger area, given the plot is 250 square meters? Does the government rule on area allocation apply in this scenario?
