A.Dear Client,
In many cases, tenants stop paying the rent and continue to hold the property. Sometimes increased rent can be the reason for disputes between the landlord and tenant. A landlord can increase the rent as per the hike mentioned in the lease or rental agreement. In case the tenant refuses to pay the increased rent after one year, the landlord can ask him to vacate the property. However, any arbitrary increase in the rent can be refused by the tenant. Apart from eviction of a tenant, the landlord can also ask for mesne profits, which includes market rent and interest, from the tenant, before the court. When the rent agreement is being signed, it is crucial to check all the details, both by the tenant and the landlord. Any violation by the tenant or landlord may revoke the contract or lease agreement.

A.Dear Client,
Carefully review the terms and conditions of the lease agreement to understand the obligations of both parties. Ensure that the agreement includes a clause specifying the due date for rent payments. If the tenant continues to be in arrears, send a formal notice in writing, requesting the outstanding rent to be paid within a specific timeframe (typically 15-30 days). The notice should also mention the consequences of non-compliance. If the tenant still doesn't pay, you may consider legal action. In India, you can file a suit for eviction and recovery of rent under relevant laws, such as the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, and the Rent Control Laws applicable in your state. If the tenant consistently fails to pay rent or breaches the terms of the lease agreement, you may have grounds to terminate the lease. However, this must be done in accordance with the terms of the lease and applicable laws. Maintain records of all communication, including notices, letters, and receipts. This documentation will be crucial if you need to pursue a legal remedy.
