Hi,

I am a resident/owner of flat in Pariwar Presidency Apartment in Anugrah Layout, Bilekahalli, Bangalore.

We have started the process for Association registration under Karnataka Apartment Ownership Act (KAOA) based on useful infromation available in this website.

Right from beginning, there have existed glaring lacunae in the state Acts pertaining to transfer of ownership of common areas and assets of multi-storied apartment complexes. And, the lackadaisical approach of the officialdom to the rectifications of these are putting the rapidly growing community of flat owners to various kinds of hardships.

Should a multi-storied apartment complex association register itself under Societies Act?

A reading of the Karnataka Apartment Ownership Act 1972 (KAOA, otherwise called Act no 17 of 1973 - click here) very clearly brings out the fact that that is what is relevant to multi-storied apartment complexes.
