rental agreement
5 years ago
Am from trichy. In Aug 2016, while we entered shop rental agreement(registered), building owner fixed lock in period to pay rent for 2 years, whether we run the business or not. Due to loss, we closed business on Oct 2017 & handover the shop key with notice (prior to 9 months). We demand to repay full amount of security deposit. Owner says, he will refund after deducting remaining 9 months rent. Till now, no tenant occupied. Is it legally correct or against law?
A.If the building owner has rented out the shop to anyone else, you can firs tissue a notice and file a case for recovery, Otherwise it is a futile attmept.
