You can issue a legal notice to the tenant demanding payment. If they still fail to pay, you can file a suit for eviction and recovery of rent in a Mumbai court. You should consult a lawyer to understand the specific procedures and deadlines.

Next Article I signed up for IndianMoney.com, a website that connects businesses with potential customers. I paid ₹1,200 upfront for 5 leads for my insurance business, with the promise of quality leads.
