About this tool
Split housing society maintenance flat by flat using the model bye-law basis: service charges equally, repairs by area, water by inlets.
This splitter apportions a housing society's monthly budget between flats using the basis set out in bye-law 68 of the model bye-laws for co-operative housing societies: service charges divided equally per flat, repairs and sinking fund in proportion to built-up area, water charges by the number of inlets, parking per slot and municipal tax at the actual amount billed. Enter the budget heads and each flat's details to get a flat-wise bill you can put before the managing committee. It also applies the 10% ceiling on non-occupancy charges for flats let out to tenants.

Each head is allocated on the basis the model bye-laws prescribe for it.
Every flat's bill is broken into service, area, water, parking and tax components.
Blocks a non-occupancy charge above 10% of service charges and interest above 21% a year.
Both, on different heads. Under bye-law 68 service charges — security, housekeeping, lift running, common electricity, office and audit — are divided equally among flats, while the repairs fund, sinking fund, insurance and lease rent are shared in proportion to built-up area. That is why a small flat pays the same security charge as a large one but a smaller repairs contribution.
10% of the service charges, excluding municipal taxes. This ceiling comes from the Government of Maharashtra circular dated 1 August 2001 and was upheld by the Bombay High Court, so a society cannot link the charge to the rent the flat earns.
Not more than 21% per annum, simple interest, under bye-law 72. The society must also have passed a resolution fixing the rate, and it can only run from the date the bill became due.
The model bye-laws set a minimum of 0.25% per annum of the construction cost of each flat for the sinking fund and 0.75% per annum for the repairs and maintenance fund, both apportioned by built-up area. A general body meeting can resolve to collect more, and older buildings usually do.
