Societies with a clubhouse, pool or large staff count tend to sit at the higher end. The exact figure is fixed by the society's own budget, not by any law, and can change every year at its general body meeting. Ask for the last paid maintenance receipt before you commit to a flat.
The number
Commonly quoted at ₹2 to ₹6 per sq ft a month (NoBrokerHood); example ₹2,000 to ₹7,000 a month for a 1,200 sq ft flat.
