Distinction between Co-op Housing Society & formation of an Association for FLAT owners in Goa.
Q: I feel confused about the distinction between Co-op Hsg Society & formation of an Association for FLAT owners in Goa. Do Karnataka laws apply in Goa? Do the Byelaws 2009 cover Goa and for forming an Association?
The Bye-Laws can be framed by the Association itself and it will become applicable if it is signed by all the members of the Association and Registered with the Registrar of Socities. And nobody can challenge the Bye-laws there after.

the co-op hsg society looks after the maintenance of only that particular building or complex and its regarding various expenses taxes etc. while association for flat owners is for the welfare of all the flat owners in that particular area and not for particular building or complex.
