Maharashtra Courts Uphold Housing Society Rights Against Builder and Eviction Claims
The Bombay High Court overturned the Maharashtra co-operation minister's 2025 order to de-register the Hatkesh Udyog Nagar Industrial Premises Co-operative Housing Society, ruling that a builder cannot seek de-registration based on illegalities caused by himself. Separately, the Maharashtra State Co-Operative Appellate Court ruled in favor of a Mumbai resident, Mr. Joshi, preventing his eviction by a housing society after a 38-year legal battle over alleged maintenance defaults and nuisance claims. Both rulings emphasize protections for society members against actions initiated by builders or societies.
