A businessman, 30 years ago, obtained a loan from a bank using a partnership deed that mentioned his business location as a property owned by someone else. This person, who only entrusted the property to the businessman, did not officially rent it out. Now, the businessman claims tenancy based on this deed, despite never paying rent or having any rent receipts. Can this old deed be used against the property owner?

I’m planning to open a food stall in a space I’ve secured, but the agreement has a clause allowing either party to terminate with just 2 months’ notice. This leaves me worried they might pull out, especially since they’re not offering any security deposit. I’m investing heavily in renovations, how can I protect myself?

My landlord made us sign a 3-year lease agreement. Does this mean we can’t move out even if we’ve only lived here for 11 months?

We filed a case against our tenant in October 2015 for not paying rent. We had a registered agreement, and the lease expired in December 2015. Our tenant didn’t show up in court despite the judge’s order, though his lawyer appeared twice. He admitted to being the tenant and not paying rent for 5 months, giving false excuses. The decision is due soon. He now threatens to go to the High Court. Can he do that without attending the lower court hearings? Also, can he move to the High Court without paying the rent arrears and court fees?

My tenant passed away years ago, and I’ve been locked in a legal battle with his wife and sons over vacating the shop. After a long court process, they were ordered to leave but got a stay order from the High Court. Now, one of his sons wants to make a new agreement, saying he doesn’t care what we include. Can we make a new lease agreement with him as a tenant and close this chapter completely? Can we also include a condition that he has to vacate the shop within a month or two after the six-month lease ends, without any legal action?

My uncle and his cousin lived together for 30 years. My uncle made a will leaving the property to his cousin. He passed away in 1996, and in 1999, the rest of the family moved out, leaving the property to my uncle’s cousin. He started paying rent by cheque, promising to change the rent receipt to his own name but delaying. He’s been doing this for 15 years, but the receipts still haven’t changed. Now he’s been served with an eviction notice claiming subletting. What can we do?

I was living in a 2 BHK flat with two other guys. We each had our own space – I had the master bedroom, one guy had the other room, and the last one slept in the hall. When I moved out, I found a replacement to take over my room, like everyone else had to do. But there was a catch – I had to share the bathroom with one of the guys. My replacement, let’s call him Mr. X, moved in and paid me the rent and security deposit. Now, Mr. X is having problems with the other guys and wants me to give him back his deposit, threatening legal action if I don’t.

I came back to my rented flat after two days, only to find the electricity connection cut off due to unpaid bills. My landlord had informed me about the disconnection, but I was facing financial difficulties and couldn’t pay at the time. I’ve also missed rent payments a few times due to these challenges, but I’ve been diligently catching up, paying a significant amount of â‚¹45,000 over the past two months.However, locking me out without any warning or communication, leaving behind my valuables, important documents, and essential medications, seems unfair and unethical. Is this legally permissible? Can I legally break the lock to regain access to my flat, considering I have the keys?What legal options do I have to challenge this situation, and can I seek compensation? I lost out on two crucial business opportunities because I couldn’t access my documents. Despite pleading my case and highlighting my recent efforts to be financially responsible, this ordeal lasted for a week. I have now settled the electricity bill.Please advise on the next steps.

My family has lived in our rented home for over 25 years. Our landlord, despite a verbal agreement for a 5-year lease, now wants to raise the rent in just 2 years. What legal options do we have to challenge this sudden increase in rent? We only have an old landline bill in our name; no electricity or water bills.

My landlord keeps making excuses and delaying returning my security deposit. I gave him proper notice, letting him know I needed the deposit before moving out. I found a new place and had to leave, but now he’s saying he needs more time. He’s locked the house and lives in the UK, so I can’t meet with him. He only responds to my calls and emails when he wants to, and doesn’t give any clear answers. What can I do?

We live in a residential area where a building is being constructed for paying guests. The project doesn’t have the necessary approvals or licenses. We are concerned about the impact this could have on our community. How can we stop the construction and remove any existing paying guest facilities? We need guidance on what actions we can take.

My grandfather rented out a shop to a tenant many years ago, before any written agreements were made. The tenant’s son is now claiming ownership of the shop and refusing to vacate. We filed a case with the Rent Control Board, but he’s now claiming the shop is his. What are my best options in this situation?

My tenant’s lease ended a few months ago, but he refuses to move out even after we filed a police report. He initially asked for more time but is now openly defying us and saying we can do whatever we want. What legal steps can we take to get him out of the house?

I work at a nationalized bank in India and they offer housing assistance. My family and I liked a flat in Gurgaon, but the landlord lives in Mumbai. A broker recommended we talk to the landlord directly, and he agreed to lease us the apartment over the phone. He requested an advance of â‚¹12,000 for painting the flat, which we transferred to his account. Now, there are some problems with the lease agreement, and we want to find a different apartment. We’ve asked the landlord to return the â‚¹12,000, but he’s refusing. What can I do to get my money back?
