A. Dear Client,

A lease or rent agreement extending for 12 months or more must be registered; however, a notarized 11-month agreement remains legally binding even without registration. Section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908, specifies that a lease/rent agreement for a term not exceeding one year is not mandatory for registration. This implies that agreements for less than 12 months can proceed without registration, allowing parties to save on stamp duty and registration costs. Insisting on regi ...ReadMore

The validity of employment bonds can be contested under Section 27 of the Contract Act, 1872, which prohibits agreements restraining trade and profession. Such agreements are considered illegal only if they restrict someone from pursuing a lawful profession, trade, or business. Section 27 mandat ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
A lease for a period of 12 months or longer would be considered void if it is not registered, in contrast to an 11-month agreement that is still legally binding even without registration. In Karnataka, the lock-in period for the agreement is 11 months, which includes pet policy, water and electricity bill, maintenance and repair, occupancy limit etc. As per requirements of section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908, a lease agreement for a term not exceeding one year is not compulsor ...ReadMore

Initiate a police complaint against the involved lender promptly and promptly serve them a legal notice. Enhance the strength of your claim by detailing your grievance and posting a complaint against the lender on the RBI's grievance redressal portal under the integrated Banking Ombudsman Scheme at https://cms.rbi.org.in. Ensure a swift resolution by also providing a copy of the complaint to the concerned lender.
