annual maintainance charge

Q: As per U.P. apartment act it is unlawful to ask for maintenance charges in favor of builder sister/ associate firm, but as usual builder will compel/ harass you to make such payment at the time of possession.

Anyhow how much should builder charge for annual maintenance of a newly built tower of 24 floors.

Hi Aiza,
I had a conversation with a Noida Builder regarding a project called Paramount floraville, I asked maintenance charge and was told Rs1.6/sq-ft + ST. Is it worth paying Rs.1.6/sq-ft. for maintenance charges?

Good after noon Mukhesh!!!
The information which you have provided above is not complete without details of what exactly is included in this figure of Rs 1.6/sq-ft. and what overheads are to be paid over and above this.

For example, builders are also charging for club, water, common area electricity, minimum monthly for electricity for flats and minimum monthly for gensets even if flat is kept locked after maintenance.

Hi Ashwane,
It's common for residents to pay anything between Rs 2 and 3 per square foot as maintenance charges in housing societies across Gurgaon, Noida, Gr. Noida and Ghaziabad.
