A.hi,
You have already sent him a notice for eviction which is the first step, even after this if the tenant refuses to vacate your house then you are within your rights to file a suit for eviction, please consult a lawyer in that case.

A.1. you can serve him a legal notice through a lawyer to make payment of the outstanding rent amount along with the interest,
2. if payment is not made despite service of the legal notice, you can file a suit for the recovery of the amount in addition to evict the premises,
3. chat, call records, WhatsApp record, letter, agreement, if relevant, can prove your case and are admissible as an evidence

A.Dear Sir,

At the outset you are well within your rights to require your tenant to vacate the house. If they do not vacate the premises you may file an eviction suit. Alternatively if they do vacate the premises, based on the terms of the rental agreement, you may deduct the outstanding rent from the security deposit. Please note if you seek to explore any additional remedies against your tenant then the same requires review of your rental agreement.
