Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in India

Re: About Renewal of my Rental Agreement

Dear Sir,

It is more cardinal to know when did the period of lease of one year got expired, and after that period how long u are into possession of the demised premises.

If your landlord accepts the rent from u after the expiry of period lease, he deems to have accepted you as a tenant on monthly basis (where agreement is not renewed by the landlord) and u can get the protection of rent legislation. But if not and the agreement is on stamps paper, then your deemed bound by the agreement and vacate the demised premises.

Furthermore about the deposit, recitials of the agreement has to perused for that purpose, whereif any forfeiture clause is mentioned therein or not. Else you are entitled tobe requited full amount of your deposit, in case landlord seeks for your eviction.

Re: About Renewal of my Rental Agreement

If you do not renew your agreement, then you will be considered as an illegal tenant. So, forthwith to establish your good intention, send a letter of request to your owner calling upon him to immediately sign the renewal agreement and send the letter by Regd.Post. Ack.Due. and also get the lapsed agreement vetted by a legal counsel to understand its contents.
