Mrs Tulip Kotian
Need to know if we could charge anything extra to the sublet flats in our society. We have 50% of the flats on lease on one wing. We have a big problem with these sublet flats. We need to know if we can charges any other charges besides the normal non occupancy charges. we need to make money for our society.
Kindly give your guidance.
