Moving In or Out of Dwarka Sector 22: Society Rules, Permissions and Timings

Dwarka Sector 22 has no published shifting rules: our October 2026 search found none for any of its 26 cooperative societies or for its DDA pocket. What is written down sits in Delhi's cooperative society rules, in DDA's records and in dated traffic orders, so moving hours, lift bookings and any deposit have to be asked of the committee or the neighbours who run your block.

The gate routine, basement parking and the drive to Gurgaon are explained on the packers and movers in Dwarka Sector 22 page. The nearest of our offices is the Dwarka branch, Shop No. 204 in Kartar Nagar, Sector 12. This guide stays with the rules: who makes them, what the published texts say, and what you will have to ask.

Who sets the rules at your Sector 22 address?

That depends on whether you live on a society plot or in the DDA pocket.

Check the plot letter as well as the number. The Dwarka Homes list for Sector 22 splits Plot 5 into four societies, 5A to 5D, and Plot 15 into three, 15A to 15C, with a Plot 6A beside Plot 6. Each is a separate cooperative with its own office and committee, so a rule you hear about from a friend two gates away may not apply to you.

The Jay Pee record also shows why charges can differ inside one complex: its flats come in eight categories, from A-1 to F. Where flat sizes differ like this, Rule 102(2) asks the society's regulations to spell out how the charges are fixed, so ask for that page too.

What do Delhi's cooperative rules say about the parts a move uses?

The Delhi Co-operative Societies Rules, 2007, which we read on the Registrar's website on 22 October 2026, never mention moving day. They do define the spaces a move passes through and say who runs them.

• Common areas (Rule 89). The explanation to Rule 89 lists stairs, lobbies, corridors, entrances and exits, basements, parking areas and elevators among a building's "common areas and facilities". Under Rule 89(7), the cost of keeping them up is shared among everyone with occupancy rights.
• Essential services (Rule 102(1)). The committee must keep the lifts running, provide security services and arrange round-the-clock emergency response. The guard who checks your truck and the lift that carries your cartons are both the committee's responsibility.
• Regulations (Rule 102(2)). The general body frames the regulations for these services and the basis of the charges. The same sub-rule says lift charges are payable by every member and resident, whatever floor they live on.

So if your society has set moving hours, a lift-booking routine or a moving charge, it should be written in those regulations or in a committee decision made under them. Ask to see the text, not just a notice on the gate.

Who pays if something is damaged during the move?

The rules allow for it, but they do not set a figure. Rule 106(6) says repairs outside the committee's own maintenance list, along with any item the general body approves or the bye-laws cover, are carried out by the committee at the cost of the member or occupant. In plain terms, if your bye-laws or a general body decision cover damage to a lift car or a lobby wall, the society can recover the repair cost from you.

No rule fixes a refundable moving deposit, its amount or the time within which it comes back. If your office asks for one, get three things in writing: the amount, the decision that allows it, and how and when it will be returned. A photograph of the lift car and lobby walls before the first carton goes in, and another after the last one, settles most arguments.

Can a society ask for a separate moving fee?

The rules do not name one. Regular charges reach residents in a set way: under Rule 102(4), the committee issues a schedule of demand approved by the general body, displays it on the notice board, and allows at least 15 days for payment, with simple interest of up to 15% a year on late payments.

A one-off charge that appears only when the truck arrives does not fit that pattern, so ask which resolution sets it and ask for a receipt. The Registrar's website also carries an older directive telling group housing societies not to charge an "entry fee" before handing over possession or issuing an NOC. It was issued under the 1973 rules, which the 2007 rules later replaced, so check with the Registrar's office how it applies today before you rely on it.

For renters, the society will also want your tenancy papers on file; our Sector 22 service page explains that step, so we do not repeat it here.

Which road and truck timings apply around Sector 22?

Unlike society rules, these orders are in print with dates, and they bind the truck whichever gate it uses.

Many Sector 22 moves are to or from Gurgaon, which usually means a truck with Haryana plates, so the winter curb decides which vehicle can come at all. If the truck has to wait outside your gate, park it where the guard allows: the same FAQ puts towing at Rs 1,000 for a light goods vehicle, with Rs 1,000 a day in custody after 48 hours, and Rs 1,500 for medium and heavy ones. For routes and timings across the border, see moving between Delhi and Gurgaon; the permit itself is explained in our house shifting in Delhi guide.

What should you ask where nothing is published?

Send these to your society office, or to the neighbours who handle the pocket's common areas, and keep the replies:

• To do: Which society runs my plot letter and block, and who signs the gate pass?
• To do: Which days and times does the society allow for loading and unloading, and where is that written?
• To do: Can the lift be reserved for loading, and can it carry a fridge standing up?
• To do: Is a deposit or moving charge taken? Which decision sets it, and when is a deposit refunded?
• To do: Where may the truck stand, given that the basement ramp is off limits for most trucks?
• To do: Do you need my agreement or sale deed before the goods come in?
• To do: Are my maintenance charges clear on the current schedule of demand?
• To do: Who removes empty cartons and packing waste afterwards?

If you are moving between two Sector 22 plots, put the same questions to both offices and pick a day that suits each of them.

What else should you read?

Two neighbouring rules guides take different angles: Dwarka Sector 10 on the membership transfer timeline for buyers, and Dwarka Sector 7 on charges for tenants. For what the crew does on moving day, see household shifting. Once your office has replied, send us the answers with your floor and preferred dates.
