Bye-law No. 168
Common areas, encroachment and change of use
Summary
Space under staircases, terraces, open grounds, lawns, club house, halls etc. cannot be let out to anyone. No member may occupy common areas like staircases, landings, parking, lift lobbies or corridors. An encroacher must remove it and pay 5 times the monthly maintenance per month for the period of encroachment. The same 5-times penalty applies (retrospectively) for construction beyond the sanctioned plan or change of use of the flat.
