What the society nomination form does
The nomination form tells your society who should receive your shares and interest in the flat on your death. The form refers to Section 30 of the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act, 1960.
A nomination does not make the nominee the owner. It sets out who the society deals with first.

Under Bye-law 32, the Secretary places it before the managing committee at its next meeting. The committee records it in the minutes, and the Secretary enters it in the register of nominations within 7 days of that meeting. The Secretary's acknowledgement is treated as acceptance.
Changing or cancelling a nomination
Apply in writing to the Secretary. Each revision costs ₹100, and the acknowledgement of the new nomination cancels the earlier one.
What happens on the member's death
Under Bye-law 33, and subject to Section 30 of the Act:
- The nominee applies for membership within six months.

- An indemnity bond is filed where only one nominee is enrolled. See our Nominee / Heir page.
