Damodaran Committee Report: Impact on Impulsive Law Making
For sake of completing, but with a view to saving self from the hassle of freshly drafting for the purpose, it is recommended to look up the Blog @
The observation of the court on the grounds of which the point of issue is seen to have been decided against Hill Properties, the appellant, reads:
“Occupancy rights in flat conferred by Articles of Association confer ownership rights in flat. Restriction on transferability of flat in Articles of Association is void.”
While references have no doubt been made to the special law governing flats, being units of a ‘building’, the appellant , it is noted, has not argued, much less in detail, the legal implications of the special law; hence not gone into by the lower court, and also by the apex court. To one’s understanding, the clinching proposition of law enunciated / accepted in decided cases, also for tax purposes, is this: Even in cases where flats have been acquired following strictly the procedure laid down by the special law, the property rights, particularly ‘absolute ownership’ rights in the “land and building”, of which the flat forms a part, vests with the ‘company’ or ‘society’ as formed and registered as per the special law by the flat buyers jointly as a community.
For instance, the stated proposition, it is observed, has been reiterated, with no reservation, also in the SC case in deciding the issue of ‘saleability’ of parking spaces to individual flat buyers, against the builder/seller.
On the facts and circumstances as understood, in the Hill Properties case, it is not, it appears to be more than obvious, such a company as envisaged by the referred special law for flats.
If the foregoing and several other considerations were to be borne in mind, as of now, to say the least, it is anybody’s guess whether the view the court has taken in re. Hill Properties would come to be reviewed by the SC itself; that is, if and when the occasion next arises and the whole matter is called upon to be given a fresh look and examination having regard to the attendant legal principles.
Over to law pundits, for useful add-on / rejoinder, if any.

The ethics code is based on the principle that directors, and more so the CMD, owe a fiduciary duty to place the interest of all the stakeholders above their own and conduct transactions in a manner that does not create any conflict of interest situation.
But behind every stressed asset there is either the personal interest of a CMD, director or chartered accountant, or the involvement of joint interest. But they seldom get punished.

Corporate lending decisions are invariably made by CMDs in their personal chambers and pushed through the system, overriding a genuine credit proposal secured through sincere efforts. ........>

Xecrpts
<On appeal by Hill Properties to the Supreme Court HELD The right, title & interest over a flat conveyed is a species of property, whether that right has accrued under the provisions of the Articles of Association of a Company or through the bye-laws of a Cooperative Society. Flat owners’ right to dispose of its flat is also well recognized, and one can sell, donate, leave by will or let out or hypothecate his right. By purchasing the flat, the purchaser, over and above his species of right over the flat, will also have undivided interest in the common areas and facilities, in the percentage as prescribed. Flat owners will also have the right to use the common areas and facilities in accordance with the purpose for which they are intended. It is too late in the day to contend that flat owners cannot sell, let, hypothecate or mortgage their flat for availing of loan without permission of the builder, Society or the Company. Neither the Companies Act nor any other statute make any provision prohibiting the transfer of species of interest to third parties or to avail of loan for the flat owners’ benefit. A legal bar on the saleability or transferability of such a species of interest will create chaos and confusion. The right or interest to occupy any such flat is a species of property and hence has a stamp of transferability. The Articles of Association of a Company have no force of a Statute and the right of the shareholder to mortgage could not have been restricted by the Articles of Association (Ramesh Himatlal Shah Vs. Harsukh Jadhavji Joshi (1975) 2 SCC 105 followed).>
ITAT Order in re. Shantikumar D Majithia vs. DCIT (ITAT ... - TaxGuru
Supra :
rder in re. Shantikumar D Majithia vs. DCIT (ITAT Mumbai)- A ...
’s case (supra), this Court
has clearly delineated the legal principle which is as
follows :-
“20. Multi-storeyed ownership flats on cooperative
basis in cities and big towns have come to stay
because of dire necessity and are in the process of
rapid expansion for manifold reasons. Some of
these are: ever growing needs of an urban
community necessitating its accommodation in
proximity to cities and towns, lack of availability of
land in urban areas, rise in price of building
material, restrictions under various rent
legislations, disincentive generated by tax laws
and other laws for embarking upon housing
construction on individual basis, security of
possession depending upon fulfilment of the
conditions of membership of a society which are
none too irksome. In absence of clear and
unambiguous legal provisions to the contrary, it
will not be in public interest nor in the interest of
commerce to impose a ban on saleability of these
flats by a tortuous process of reasoning. The
prohibition, if intended by the legislature, must be
in express terms. We have failed to find one.”
13. Reference may also be made to another judgment of
this Court in
DLF Qutub Enclave Complex Educational

Charitable Trust Vs. State of Haryana,
(2003) 5 SCC
622,
wherein this Court held that the right of transfer of land
indisputably is incidental to the right of ownership and such
a right can be curtailed or taken away only by reason of a
Statute. In our view, the Articles of Association of a
Company have no force of a Statute and that the right of
Respondent No.5 to mortgage could not have been
restricted by the Articles of Association.
14. We find that neither the Companies Act nor any other
statute make any provision prohibiting the transfer of
species of interest to third parties or to avail of loan for the
flat owners’ benefit. A legal bar on the saleability or
transferability of such a species of interest, in our view, will
create chaos and confusion. The right or interest to occupy
any such flat is a species of property and hence has a stamp
of transferability and consequently we find no error with the
warrant of attachment

No doubt, references have been made to, and inspiration sought to be drawn from, the special State enactments (and other rules), governing flats, being units of a ‘building’.

Should that be so, and on that premise, it seems inconceivable that in a case where there is no such company (“association”) constituted by the occupants of flats in a building as per the special law, different considerations would come into play.

UQ
On a quick reading and understanding, the legal implications of the State law specially governing “Flat” are not seen to have been argued, hence not been addressed and gone into. May be, courts could be expected do so, in the other cases, e.g. in the tax case of Shantikumar D Majithia vs. DCIT (ITAT Mumbai), in further proceedings, had it been pursued, and happens to be pending.
