April 19, 2025 at 5:19 amUnless you own an apartment in that society, you don’t have to worry about these bylaws. However, if you’re renting then contact your landlord and do what he says.NAL

April 19, 2025 at 5:35 amThese rules specifically address the tenants. Wouldn’t I be penalized if I don’t follow it?-

April 19, 2025 at 6:06 amIf it is new construction and still the society is not registered with muncipallity then its illegal and if its registered with corporation with they can make their own rules but you can negotiate and if you are a tenant ask the owner to follow and if you own you can ask or communicate with other residents/tenants how they have shiffted their household items -

April 19, 2025 at 6:06 amEngage with Society Management: **Open a dialogue with society management or the residents’ association. Express your concerns politely and seek clarification on why these rules exist.****Restrictions on Furniture in Lifts**: Prohibiting furniture from being carried in lifts may be intended to prevent damage or overloading, which could lead to costly repairs. While this rule might seem inconvenient, it could be within the society’s rights if outlined in their regulations.
Ultimately, understanding the rationale behind these rules can lead to a more amicable resolution while ensuring compliance with legal standards.

April 20, 2025 at 2:07 amthat’s called move-in fees but asking 5k and then not allowing to use lift for furnitures is bad, they sud ask less in that case if they don’t have a service lift.
