....Finally, as held in the Raheja judgement, there will be no works contract if the agreement is entered into after the flat or unit is already constructed. The question over when a flat or unit is already constructed can again become contentious.
While the judgement has provided finality on the tax ability of under-construction property, it has left a trail of other issues to be resolved.....

After much delay and deliberation The Real Estate Regulation and Development Bill, 2013 has been approved by the Union Cabinet on June 4, 2013.

OFFHAND

"A recurring bills or monthly bills are recoverable and each bill has time limitation of three years. Suppose a member is not paying since 2007 then in 2014 only bills which were due since 2011 will be eligible for recovery and rest bills cannot be recovered as covered under Limitation Act...."

The proposition. so categorically advanced, but with no reservation, prima facie, does not seem to be right; and in any view, not free from bona fide doubt. If one is not mistaken, such a view runs counter to one's understanding of the legal position that in case of a continuing default- i.e. a person who has been, and continues to be a perpetual defaulter, even while still being a member of the society,-the last committed default would give rise to a fresh start of limitation, in respect all past defaults. That is what is commonly known as concept of 'running account' of any type of debtor-creditor relationship. Instantly, in support, there seems to be-open to correction-  decided court cases on a similar proposition wrt promoter's continuing default to comply with any of the mandates of say, the MOFA often come-across. Over to law experts for further deliberation and enlightenment.
