Housing society management software for Mumbai

Mumbai has over 85,000 registered cooperative housing societies — more than any other city in India. Managing a CHS in Mumbai means navigating the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies (MCS) Act, MCGM regulations, complex maintenance billing across varying flat sizes, and committee elections that now require formal compliance documentation.

Plinth is built specifically for the governance and financial complexity Mumbai CHS committees face.

What Mumbai CHS committees use Plinth for

Maintenance billing & GST compliance

Mumbai CHSs often have mixed charge structures — per flat, per sq ft, and parking charges — with GST applicable above the ₹7,500/month threshold. Plinth lets you configure charge heads with tax rates, auto-generate itemised invoices per flat, and produce a clean billing ledger for your auditor at year-end.

Online voting for AGM resolutions

MCS Act elections and AGM resolutions require verifiable voter identity and a tamper-evident record. Plinth enforces flat-owner eligibility, blocks defaulters automatically, and produces a compliance report with delivery proof, quorum confirmation, and ballot records — the same documents an election officer or cooperative registrar would ask for.

Committee elections (GBE)

Mumbai CHSs go through committee elections every 5 years or when a vacancy arises. Plinth's General Body Election module covers nomination, candidate verification, secret ballot, and result publication — all online, with a full audit trail that stands up to a cooperative court challenge.

AGM notices & minutes

Send AGM notices 21 days in advance with agenda attached, track per-flat delivery, collect RSVPs and proxies, run in-meeting resolutions, and finalise minutes with chairman sign-off — all in one place rather than across WhatsApp and separate Word documents.

Helpdesk & complaint tracking

Residents raise complaints — leaking terrace, lift breakdown, parking disputes. Plinth routes each ticket to the right committee member or vendor, tracks SLA, and maintains a resolution history that makes committee accountability visible.

Why Mumbai CHSs specifically need proper software

  • MCS Act compliance: Elections, AGMs, and record-keeping have statutory requirements. Non-compliance leads to disputes in cooperative courts.
  • Large membership: A typical Mumbai CHS has 50–500 flats. Managing billing and communication over WhatsApp does not scale.
  • NRI owners: Mumbai has a high proportion of absent flat owners. Online voting and digital notices let NRIs participate in AGMs without being physically present.
  • Flat resale & handover: A clean billing and ownership record accelerates flat resales and new-member onboarding.

Pricing for Mumbai CHS

Plinth is free for societies up to 30 flats. Larger Mumbai CHSs start at plans designed to be less than the annual cost of one committee meeting at a hotel banquet hall.
