Who pays for repair of leakage from a neighbour's bathroom? Maharashtra co-op court clarifies housing society's liability

Mr Gupta, who lives in Mira Road (East), Thane, owned two shops on the ground floor and had a problem with water leaking from his ceiling. In March 2022, he reached out to Dr. Fixit Institute for structural protection & rehabilitation. The team assessed the situation and told Gupta that there was severe leakage and damage to his ceiling caused by the water seeping from the concealed plumbing lines of the bathroom in the 1st floor flat owned by Ms Srivastav.

Dr Fixit’s team quoted Rs 10,000 to Gupta for the necessary repairs. Additionally, Gupta brought on M/s. Mithilesh Water Proofing Co. to inspect his units and get an estimated repair cost.
