Hi Raju,Thanks for sharing this.However on point 9, I would say its a lame excuse given by CSK. As forget about current union budget even as per last years bylaws as well. The society is eligible to deposit service tax only if monthly maintenance charges exceeds Rs 3000 per month per flat AND total collection of the society exceeds Rs 8 Lakhs per month.Only the above mentioned limits have been tweeked in the current years union budget just to if monthly maintenance charges exceeds Rs 5000 per month per flat AND total collection of the society exceeds Rs 10 Lakhs per month.
So going by this as well we were not supposed to pay service tax at all on MMC as I don't think any of the flats have maintenance exceeding Rs 3000 per month(excluding Service tax 10.3%Moreover if for reversal of service tax we have been asked to wait till June 2012, then why do CSK is charging increased service tax of 12.36% from April 2012 itself!!Thanks,Gurpreet SinghOn Tue, Apr 24, 2012 at 6:04 PM, RAJ KUMAR RAJU <rajubanka@gmail.com> wrote:

Dear Valued Resident,
This is to inform you all that a meeting was called by Mahagun Management on 21st April 2012, at 11 AM and we discussed on the below issues which are either realted to Construction or Maintenance. Please see the current status and the assigned resource for each issue.
Maintenance/CSK Related Issues:
1. Security: There are many security lacks on each tower, lift, entry/exit point. This has caused several incidents of unwanted vehicles driving through the society. Outsiders can easily enter to the society premises. In addition, security guards are not trained on whom to prevent entry for. Guards are usually not present at late night and/or early morning and don't check who is coming and going. Guards should be given training for - What to do in case of fire and fire alarm gets activated? What to do in case someone stuck into lift? Guards should have keys to Electric/Fire alarm shafts, so that in case of emergency they can cut the electric supply immediately.
Status: Result will be visible by 15th May 2012.
Assigned to: Mr. Rajeev Srivastava
2. Safety: The common electric meter room and shaft area should be kept closed, as it may be dangerous for children.
Status: Result will be visible by 30th April 2012.
Assigned to: Mr. Rajeev Srivastava
3. Intercom: The intercom (phone) is not working properly. The emergency intercom system buttons in the lifts are not functional for many towers. The intercoms should be installed immediately as soon as a resident takes possession. The intercom system should always be up and running.
· Complaint redressal system should be there in place
· Intercom should be connected with UPS so that we use Intercom once power goes off.
Status: The meeting is already in in progress with TTPL Director and Mahagun Management. We have to wait until 15th May 2012 otherwise Mahagun will opt out TTPL for services.
Assigned to: Mr. Rajeev Srivastava
4. Water leakage in the basements: The parking area is flooded with water all the time, water is flowing in through pillars, shafts etc. It can see seen nearer to Crema Tower lift in B1.
Status: The result can be seen within a week.
Assigned to: Mr. Rajeev Srivastava
5. Cleaning: The cleaning service is not good. You can visit the site to see the passage area, common and shaft area, Basement parking area etc. The supervisor needs to check it regularly and CSK needs to monitor it periodically.
Status: The result will be visible by 15th May 2012.
Assigned to: Mr. Rajeev Srivastava
6. We have noticed water is draining out from the shaft area near the entrance gate of Catania block which gives very bad picture of society.
Status: The result will be visible by 15th May 2012.
Assigned to: Mr. Rajeev Srivastava
7. There is lot of debris in-front of Romano and Valencia Tower (Park Facing) which results in lot of dust in the flat of these two towers. It is also very dangerous in terms of Fire. Can you please remove this ASAP and start beautification of the exteriors?
Status: Partially done.
8. Regular Mosquitoes Smocking: It is never happened but it should be there on a regular basis to stop mosquitoes breeding and to avoid the Malaria in the society premises.
Status: It will start happening from Monday (24/04) onwards but it has not happened yet.
Assigned to: Mr. Mayank Agarwal

Status: The power is distributed as per the agreement. However a format of the excelsheet will be provided by Mr. Mayank Aggarwal to verify the consumption at our end.
11. To verify the load requirement and distribution structure on power backup: We would like to know how Mahagun and CSK is planning to tackle this situation. We should have a clear picture on paper to understand the engineering behind it and its effectiveness as summers are creeping in and let's expect a high summer this time. Every society members has AC's installed in their flats & they will start running them in full swing during the total summer period.
As per our past experience, it was an immense problem that during the peak hours when most of the ACs will be running, the power back-up system often fails to take load resulting in power failure, low voltage, frequent trips & damage / burning of underlying cables and after all the lifts don't run. As a result, there was no light in our flats during the cut hours on frequent basis. To my believe every individual will then feel the frustration, coming out of their flats, breaking maintenance offices, fighting among ourselves & creating a mess. As a proactive approach, we should have the control on the situation.
Status: The CSK/Mahagun Management assured that they have sufficient power back up to tackle this situation. So the residents need not to be worry about this issue.
12. Power back up charge break up & daily 12 to 15 hours power cuts issue. Why should we pay Rs. 100 as fixed charge / KVA, sinking fund is given to maintenance for AMC. CSK should provide the complete break up on the charges of power back up to every residence in writing, any change in any element in break up should be informed prior to residents & to be implemented after approval.
Status: The Electricity Roster/schedule will be provided.
Assigned to: Mr. Mayank Agarwal
13. Electricity/Power Backup selling and approved distribution detail.
Status: The Electricity Roster/schedule will be provided.

14. To verify the load requirement and distribution structure on power backup. Can we get the printed invoice for our electric consumption?
Status: Excel sheet containing main and power backup consumption will be provided.
Assigned to: Mr. Mayank Agarwal
15. Sinking fund usage, justification on proper usage of maintenance charges, Contracts with vendors related to AMC / Cleaning / Plumbing / Electric / Horticulture / Guards etc.
Status: Sinking fund gets rarely used and will be passed on to RWA, once they take control of maintenance.
16. Should commercial activities be popularized and allowed within the society? What are the guidelines of the CSK Facility Management on this?

[RWA-Mascot:428] Re: MoM of MMRWA Meeting with CSK & Mahagun Management
Dear Gurpreet,
I also forced them to give a clear picture but Mr. Aggarwal said that he is already a CA and he knows the budget very well. He said to wait till June 2012 then he will give the clear picture on this. He said it applies when RWA is there. If a Maintenance agency is collecting the MMC then the service Tax is liable. Moreover he said this amount is not going to CSK's pocket, it is going to Govt. of India. So they can revert it, if that is the case.
However, if you have more document of any evidence where maintenance Agency is collecting the MMC but they are not charging the Service Tax, please let me know so that it would be very easy to give an example. Otherwise we need to wait until June 2012.
Regards,
Raj Kumar Raju
