The prime necessities of human beings are food, clothing and shelter and housing cooperative is an essential for human existence as much food and clothing. Housing is a significant subject having a concern with a common man. One of the important problems faced by India is the housing problem. The reasons are varied, like tremendous growth in population, migration from rural to urban areas. Highly speculative trend in the cost of land, weakening of joint family system thus creating a requirement of a separate house for each family unit etc. Co-operative housing emerged as a strong, well organized and significant in order to. Solve the housing problem of common man. These are legally established association of persons and are democratically controlled by the members. The working group on housing co-operatives has therefore said that, “cooperative activity is the best means of providing decent houses at reasonable costs to persons, particularly of low and middle income groups.’’

Definition of Housing Co-operatives "Co-operative housing society" means a society of persons-

(a) which is formed for all or any of the objects referred to in section five
of the act 1958; (b) which has under its rules a share capital divided into equal shares of one or more classes and not being preferential shares; and

(c) which under its rules is to terminate on a specified date or when a

specified object is attained or a specified event occurs- but does not include a Starr-Bowkett society, that is to say, a society in which the order of advances to members is determined either solely or partly by the drawing of lots; OR

co-operative principles (Voluntary membership, democratic member control,

A housing Co-operative is also defined as “an association run along with

member economic participation, autonomy and independence, education, training and information, co-operation among co-operators and concern for community.)”.
Housing co-operatives provide a way for people to share in the ownership of property and live in it at affordable rent levels, as opposed to rent levels designed to generate profit for an individual or company. They are an alternative to home ownership in the traditional sense or renting in the private sector.

A housing cooperative is a legal entity—usually a corporation—that owns real estate, consisting of one or more residential buildings. Each shareholder in the legal entity is granted the right to occupy one housing unit, sometimes subject to an occupancy agreement, which is similar to a lease. The occupancy agreement specifies the co-op's rules. Legal status As a legal entity, a co-op can contract with other companies or hire individuals to provide it with services, such as a maintenance contractor or a building manager. It can also hire employees, such as a manager or a caretaker, to deal with specific things that volunteers may prefer not to do or may not be good at doing, such as electrical maintenance. However, as many housing cooperatives strive to run self-sufficiently, as much work as possible is completed by its members. A shareholder in a co-op does not own real estate, but a share of the legal entity that does own real estate. Co-operative ownership is quite distinct from condominiums where people "own" individual units and have little say in who moves into the other units. Because of this, most jurisdictions have developed separate legislation, similar to laws that regulate companies, to regulate how co-ops are operated and the rights and obligations of shareholders. Ownership

Each resident or resident household has membership in the co-operative association. Members have occupancy rights to a specific suite within the housing co-operative as outlined in their "occupancy agreement", or "proprietary lease" which is essentially a lease. In some cases, the co-op follows Rochdale Principles where each shareholder has only one vote. Most cooperatives are incorporated as limited stock companies where the number of votes an owner has is tied to the number of shares owned by the person. Whichever form of voting is employed it is necessary to conduct an election among shareholders to determine who will represent them on the board of directors (if one exists), the governing body of the co-operative. The board of directors is generally responsible for the business decisions including the financial requirements and sustainability of the co-operative. Although politics vary from co-op to co-op and depend largely on the wishes of its members, it is a general rule that a majority vote of the board is necessary to make business decisions. Finance A housing cooperative is normally de facto non-profit, since usually most of its income comes from the rents paid by its residents, who are invariably its members. There is no point in creating a deliberate surplus—except for operational requirements such as setting aside funds for replacement of assets—since that simply means that the rents paid by members are set higher than the expenses. It is relatively difficult to start a housing co-op because if the idea is, for instance, to build a building or group of buildings to house the members, this usually takes a significant mortgage loan for which a financial institution will want assurances of responsibility. It may also take a year or more for the members to organize the design and construction, as well as time and foresight to establish even basic organizational policies. It is rare that these kinds of skills of organization are available in a random group of people who often have pressures on their existing housing. It may be somewhat easier to organize a group of closely related housing units. This opportunity may arise, for example, if an existing apartment building's owner is thinking about selling it. Market-rate and limited-equity co-ops

There are two main types of housing co-operative financing methods, market rate and limited equity. With market rate, the share price is allowed to rise on the open market and shareholders may sell at whatever price the market will bear when they want to move out. In many ways market rate is thus similar financially to owning a condominium, with the difference being that often the coop may carry a mortgage, resulting in a much higher monthly fee paid to the coop than would be so in a condominium. The purchase price of a comparable unit in the co-op is typically much lower, however. With limited equity, the co-op has rules regarding pricing of shares when sold. The idea behind limited equity is to maintain affordable housing. A sub-set of the limited equity model is the no-equity model, which looks very much like renting, with a very low purchase price (comparable to a rental security deposit) and a monthly fee in lieu of rent. When selling, all that is re-couped is that very low purchase price. India Co-ops are more commonly known as "flats" in India. This type of housing is very common in big cities like Mumbai (Bombay) but not very popular in rural India. Actually, they are registered as "co-operative housing society" rather than condominiums in that the owners actually have a share of the co-op and not the actual real estate itself. Owners can sell the "share" in the open market, but they have to get the approval of the co-op to complete the transaction Classification of Housing Co-operatives

(a) Tenant Ownership: In the case where the land is owned by the Society
and the structure on the plot is owned by the members. Individual members are allotted plots by the co-operative to construct their houses. The society creates infrastructure and may also arrange the finance for the members.

(b) Tenant Co-partnership: The land and the constructed structure is owned

by the society and the members who are allotted the flats have the easement rights.

(c) Builder Co-operative: where the builder floats a housing scheme and sells
the flats. The buyers of the flats then organize into a housing society. Such societies are merely service societies or maintenance societies.

(d) Ownership cooperative: - In this case, people working in an organization
come together and form them into a housing cooperative society. They get their society register, apply to MAHADA. (MAHARASHTRA HOUSING AND DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY) and get a plot allotted to them in LIG, MIG, and HIG i.e.: low income group, middle income group, high income group. Once the plot is sanctioned they approach a construction company and depending on their budget build up housing society. E.g.: Gulmohar cooperative housing society situated at Ceissor road, Andheri (west) is the housing complex of the ICICI officers.

Organizational Chart

The Maharashtra Housing Board formerly called "Bombay Housing Board" was established in year 1948 and had a jurisdiction over the entire State of Maharashtra except Vidharbha region. This body undertook construction of residential buildings under various housing schemes for different sections of the society.

Mhada

The Maharashtra Housing & Area Development Authority (MHADA) has been established by the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Act, 1976. It came into existence on 5th December 1977. The erstwhile Mumbai Housing and Area Development Board was restructured by a Government Resolution dated 5.11.1992 and split into three separate Boards viz. Mumbai Housing and Area Development Board, Mumbai Building Repairs and Reconstruction Board and Mumbai Slum Improvement Board Under the Government Resolution No. 2679/B, dated 22.7.1992. At present MHADA is cordinating and controlling the activities of seven regional housing boards, setup for each revenue division in the state viz. Mumbai, Konkan, Pune, Nashik, Nagpur, Amravati, Aurangabad and two special purpose boards viz. Mumbai Building Repairs and Reconstruction Board and Mumbai Slum Improvement Board. Maharashtra Housing & Area Development Authority (MHADA) was constituted in 1977 with an aim to extend fair housing opportunities to the

residents of Maharashtra. The set-up of this premier Housing Authority in India marked the realization that the demand on the Real Estate and Mumbai Properties had been increasing rapidly.Considering the growing competition in Mumbai Real Estate, Maharashtra Housing & Area Development Authority (MHADA) has strategically altered the housing scenario to cover the entire Maharashtra. What makes MHADA commendable is the strategic management of resources in order to offer houses in the suburbs and areas in Mumbai like Majaswadi, Chandivali, Oshiwara and Powai. The jurisdiction of Mumbai Housing and area Development Board is limited upto Dahisar and Mulund. The regional board shares the responsibility of works like Housing , development of the land, distribution /allotment of tenements or plots , maintenance, transfer of tenancy and lease agreement, and sale of deed i.e. conveyance of societies and other as per the provisions in the Authority's act of 1976 and as per the provision made in regulation in 1981 by the state Government (and the changes made from time to time herein). It undertakes the disbursement of flats, apartments based on the lottery system and thus ensures impartial allotment. Maharashtra Housing & Area Development Authority (MHADA) has been very instrumental in undertaking the rehabilitation of slum dwellers by clearing the slums and then developing the land to offer decent houses, flats and apartments with excellent facilities and amenities like water supply, electricity. Not just this, but MHADA has productively offered decent housing for Middle-Income Group also with rapid urbanization and building construction taking place.

Maharashtra Housing & Area Development Authority (MHADA) has always had distinct objectives to achieve with a vision that at times, has, surpassed the Housing Companies also. MHADA has always accorded the much-deserved significance to Ecology, Energy Conservation Pollution, and Over-Crowding while undertaking planning, designing and implementing the housing projects.

Activities of Mhada The span of MHADA has increased in Mumbai to an extent that it has stayed in par with the latest Housing Projects undertaken by private homebuilders. With the excellent team of Home Architects , MHADA has now ventured to cater the housing needs of the elite class. The premise on which MHADA has undertaken plush constructions in Versova is that chic and lavish accommodation will be made available to complement the elite lifestyle in localities like Versova at affordable rates so that even middle class can augment their housing conditions. MHADA has always successfully launched housing projects with an aim to elevate the residents and make them get more in their investment. The activities of MHADA have not been restricted to Building and Construction. Apart from slum improvement ventures, MHADA undertakes repairs and constructions. The team, designated for the same, has been inspecting the existing constructions and identifying the repairs in a building by detailed survey of complaints so to undertake the repairs and reconstruction. Thus, MHADA has been very instrumental in enhancing the housing development in the city of Mumbai and the adjoining areas. As of now, MHADA faces an acute paucity of land to undertake the construction. Its recent projects are concentrated around the areas of Turbhe and Dindoshi. Moreover, MHADA has been planning to acquire the areas in Mulund, Vikhroli and other northeastern suburbs in Mumbai that are at present marshy. In fact, the rehabilitation of the downtrodden slums in Dharavi has been one of the most notable achievements of Maharashtra Housing & Area Development Authority (MHADA). As far as other parts in Maharashtra are concerned, MHADA has successfully developed land in Sholapur, Chandrapur and other semi-urban areas of the state.

Cidco
The City and Industrial Development Corporation of Maharashtra or CIDCO is a city planning organization created by the Government of Maharashtra. CIDCO was formed on 17 March 1970 under the Indian Companies Act of 1956. Its purpose at the time of its creation was to develop a satellite town to Mumbai, Maharashtra India to ease traffic congestion, deficiency of open spaces and play fields, shortage of housing and over-concentration of industry in the metropolitan and suburban areas of the city. Mission CIDCO's corporate mission is to plan and create environment-friendly, model urban settlements with fullfledged physical and social infrastructure to meet residential, commercial and industrial need of

population at present and in the years to come.

Objectives of CIDCO
CIDCO was given a mandate to undertake all development as works and recoup the cost of development from the sale proceeds of land and constructed property. Based on the mandate, CIDCO set the following broad objectives for itself: 1. To prevent population influx into Mumbai, diverting it to the new town, by providing an urban alternative which will lure citizens wishing to relocate to a city of peace and comfort. 2. To absorb immigrants from other states and promote efficient and rational distribution of industries by preparing a ground for them who otherwise could have opted for Mumbai. 3. To provide basic civic amenities to all, and to elevate standards of living for people of all social and economic strata. 4. To offer a healthy environment and energizing atmosphere in order to utilize human resources at their fullest potentials.

Course of action
In order to achieve the goal CIDCO started the following activities:




 

Developing land and providing the required physical infrastructure such as roads, bridges, drainage and sewerage system, drinking water system, and street lights. Building enough stock of houses supported by social infrastructure like community centres, markets, parks, education institutes, and playgrounds. Promoting commercial activities, warehousing, transportation, and decentralisation of government administration. Involving agencies in the development of public transport and telecommunication.

Organization
The corporation is controlled by its highest body of management - the board of directors - appointed by the state government and day-today management is looked after by the Vice Chairman and Managing Director supported with the team consisting of joint managing directors, chief administrator (New Towns), heads of various departments, personnel from various technical and non-technical disciplines including officers, engineers and subordinate staff.

The Corporation, as a company, is managed as per the provisions contained in the Companies Act as well as the Memorandum of Articles of Association of the Corporation and the decisions are made through democratic process like head of the departments meetings, committee meetings, board meetings and general meetings. The annual reports on working and affairs of the company with audit reports are being regularly laid before the Houses of the state legislature. Considering the exigencies of business to be transacted the Board of Directors of CIDCO meet at least once in a month.
