Could a landowner in India lease their agricultural property with a condition allowing the tenant to convert it for commercial use and cover the conversion costs? Could the lease also include a clause where the landowner becomes a trustee of the tenant’s company, receiving regular payments like salary in addition to rent?

We moved into our rented apartment two months ago, but our agreement went missing, delaying the submission process. Now, the society secretary is making things difficult due to past disagreements. He even sent a legal notice to everyone in the building accusing us of illegal activities and disturbing our neighbors. The secretary has pressured our landlord to ask us to leave, and we’ve received a notice to vacate within 15 days. What legal options do we have to address this situation?

I signed a 10-month lease agreement for ₹5,500 per month, starting January 2016 and ending November 2016. The landlord agreed to pay for painting the room upfront, but then demanded January and February’s rent together after the unsatisfactory painting job. I paid rent each month as agreed, and then requested basic repairs like fixing the water tank, door, and leaky pipes. He ignored my requests and said he’d pay me at the end of the agreement along with my deposit. Now he claims I owe a month’s rent and wants to cheat me out of my deposit.

We leased a plot of land in 1995 and moved to a different city in 2000, leaving a caretaker to manage the property. The caretaker started claiming ownership, leading to a dispute. We reached out to the landlord for help, and with their assistance and police intervention, the caretaker was removed and the property was secured. In 2008, the landlord had us sign a document stating we were leaving the property, but we didn’t fully read it. This document claims we haven’t paid rent or utilities and now we are liable for all unpaid dues with interest, and the lease agreement is still active. We received a notice in 2015 demanding payment of 1 crore rupees.

I signed a rental agreement and paid a 12,000 rupee deposit. But I decided not to move in after finding some issues with the building. This was within a few days of signing. Now the landlord wants another 12,000 rupees or he’ll file a case. Is there any legal basis for his claim?

My uncle and I share land in our village, but there’s no dividing wall. We don’t have any documents, only a water connection and ration card. Recently, he started building on our part of the land. Is there any legal action we can take?

My grandmother, a widow, was tricked by a tenant who forged her thumb impression on legal documents in 2002. He did this without the knowledge or consent of her other legal heirs. We’re fighting this in Delhi’s district court and have already won a favorable order. However, the tenant has now filed an appeal in the High Court. Can we win this case in the High Court too, and ensure our family’s rightful ownership of the property?

We own a shop in India and the lower court has ordered the tenant to vacate. The tenant appealed to the High Court, but they haven’t stopped the eviction. Can the lower court still go ahead with the eviction?

I paid a security deposit for a PG accommodation, but now they are refusing to return it. They advertised it as a PG, but over 25 people were living there, and not all in the same building. They aren’t the actual landlords; they just rent flats and operate them as a PG. I signed an agreement, but it didn’t specify how long I’d stay. Now they claim I need to stay for at least 6 months. I feel this is unfair since their operation seems illegal. Please help me get my security deposit back.

My business partner and I started a telecom office as a partnership, representing Tata Docomo. Now, my partner wants to take over the entire business. Our company policy requires him to have his own space or a registered agreement to start a new firm. We have a registered agreement for our current office. He claims he’s made arrangements with the landlord for a new agreement. How can I prevent this new agreement from being finalized, considering our existing registered agreement?

I bought a property in 2014 to build my own home, as I’m still living in a rented house where the previous owner’s tenant ran a liquor store. After buying the property, we served a legal notice to vacate, but he refused. We filed an eviction case, and his lawyer initially appeared in court. However, he stopped attending for three consecutive hearings during cross-examination. What are the next steps in the court proceedings? We haven’t demanded rent from the tenant, only claiming minimal damages.

My father leased our land to Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd for a period of 50 years. The lease agreement is set to expire in 2017. There’s no mention of renewal or extension in the contract. Will they vacate the land after the lease period ends? I’m seeking guidance on this matter.

My elderly parents rented out their Ghaziabad apartment for 10 months, with a signed agreement outlining all the rules. Unfortunately, the tenant has been disrespectful and hasn’t paid the rent. We need to get the apartment back after the agreement ends. What’s the simplest way to evict the tenant? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I rented a house in CV Raman Nagar, Bangalore in December 2012, paying a security deposit of ₹1,20,000 and monthly rent of ₹15,000. I vacated the property last month after giving proper notice. However, the owner deducted ₹49,506 from my security deposit claiming expenses for repainting and whitewashing. I also lost interest income of ₹50,000 on the deposit. Can you advise me on my legal rights in this situation?
