In Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), the allure of integrated townships—with gyms, pools and clubhouses—comes at a price. While standalone Cooperative Housing Society (CHS) apartments typically incur maintenance of around Rs. 7 per sq. ft (≈Rs. 4,200/month for a 600 sq. ft flat), township upkeep can surge by 30–50%, pushing bills to nearly Rs. 6,300/month for the same unit. Add non-occupancy charges—capped at 10% of service costs under Section 79A of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act—and vacant units face another Rs. 630/month levy, further compressing net rental yields.
