adjustment of security deposit as advance rent when vacating the property
3 years ago
I had rented agreement for 24 months for renting out a flat. This is notarized. We have agreed to pay rent in advance. Now my agreement is expiring in march 2021 and I have already informed him that I am vacating the flat on 29th March.
My owner wants post dated cheque of March 2021 with him to be presented to bank for advance rent of march 2021.
As per agreement security deposit will be adjusted against any rent arrears. The owner is saying to lodge a complaint for cheque bounce as I have given stop payment for march 2021 cheque to bank.. Can he do this?
He has my interest free security deposit twice than montly rent
A.In Cheque bounce cases he cannot go to police station. At the most he can get issue a notice under section 138 of NI Act and file cheque bounc case which is costlier.
