Balcony Cover Permission

[nitinbhuta]

I am staying in a Registered Co-operative Society in Kandivali (West) Mumbai in 2BHK Flat with exclusive terrace. When I say exclusive terrace assess by any other member is not possible directly. Due to rains I am facing the problem of water entering my kitchen premises and i want to cover my balcony only to the extent whereby water don't enter my kitchen premises. Do i need to apply for any permission with BMC for these. Further I would like to clairify that Conveyance of the Building is not registered in the name of the society till date. please help

dear nitin bhuta ji,

please note that you will not be able to secure permission from the municipal authority for the purpose as outlined by you, for various reasons. it may suffice to say that you are advised that you make a temporary structure (which can be removed at a short notice, using angles, nuts and bolts), of smallest required size, and cover it with acrylic / FRP sheets.

for all future reference, you are encouraged to restrict your queries only relating to RTI (Right to Information ) Act on this forum. For other matters, pl visit our sister portal bighelpers.org

Dear Whackpack,

Thanks for the reply.

I had raised these issue on RTI prima faciely only for two reasons because Firstly I was planning to approach BMC in Mumbai for necessary permission because I am aware that BMC Provides permission for temporary balcony cover by charing some nominal fees and Secondly when we buy any property in India normally common area , balconies, stair case area, surrounding amenities are all taken into consideration while deciding saleable area i.e. super built up.

henceforth we will restrict our threads only vis-a-vis RTI Only.

Once again thanks a ton for the guidance.

regards

Nitin Bhuta
