Mehul Choksi owes Rs 63 lakh maintenance, Rs 95 lakh renovation costs for Mumbai flats: Society member

Mumbai: Fugitive diamond trader Mehul Choksi has accumulated maintenance dues of around Rs 63 lakh for his flats in Gokul Apartments at Malabar Hill in Mumbai, a society member said on Monday. Speaking to news agency ANI, the member said Choksi owns three units in the building—on the 9th, 10th and 11th floors—and has not paid maintenance for over seven years. He alleged that the 11th floor, which is a terrace, has been "illegally occupied" by Choksi. “He has not paid maintenance for the last seven years. The dues without interest come to around Rs 63 lakh. Apart from this, in 2020, the condominium underwent renovation. The cost came to about Rs 30–35 lakh per unit, so for all three units, it’s roughly Rs 95 lakh,” the member said.
