A.Dear client,
Rent receipts are extremely valuable. If you're a tenant, a landlord's rent receipt provides proof that you're current with your rent payments. Should the landlord ever claim you haven't paid, you can produce a copy of your rent receipts. Likewise, if a landlord sues you for nonpayment or takes you to court for eviction due to nonpayment, you can prove you're up to date by showing rent receipts to the judge.

Hence, we would advise you to consult a lawyer for the purpose of filing an eviction suit against the previous tenant so as to cancel his name in the rent receipt

A.Dear Client,
If the POA executed by the previous owner or tenant empowers the tenant to keep possession of rented premises, eviction of a present tenant from the rented premises can be sought through filing an eviction suit against the tenant including the previous owner or tenant in the said suit. Reach out to an Advocate for guidance and steps.

A.Dear Sir,
Possession is itself accrues a right in favour of tenant. The tenant may approach the Civil Court and get an injunction order not to evict him without due course of law.
