Bombay HC Rules: Larger Flat Owners to Pay Higher Maintenance

Bombay HC Rules: Larger Flat Owners to Pay Higher Maintenance

Imagine a building where some apartments are bigger than others.

The court decided that people with bigger apartments should pay more for things like cleaning and repairs because they have a bigger share of the building's shared areas.

This is because the law says maintenance costs should be split based on how much of the shared space each person owns.

The court's decision was about a building in Pune where some people thought everyone should pay the same, but the court said no, the bigger the apartment, the more you pay.
