A.Dear Client,
The Pagdi system is a legalized form of tenancy under the provisions of the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, 1999. Section 7(15)(d) of the Act specifies the rights of legal heirs in the Pagdi system:
1. A tenant's family member who was living with the deceased tenant at the time of their death is eligible first from the family as the successor to succeed the tenancy.
2. Upon the demise of a current Pagdi tenant, the tenancy rights can only be transferred to the legal heir(s).
3. The new tenant (legal heir) can request the landlord to issue a fresh rent receipt in the heir(s) name(s).
Once the Pagdi amount is paid, the tenant becomes the owner of the property and has the right to live in it. The landlord cannot evict the tenant or repossess the property, as long as the tenant continues to pay the monthly rent. Section 56 of the Rent Control Act, 1999, legalizes the consideration paid to the landlord as Pagdi. This provision allows a tenant to receive any amount in consideration for relinquishing or transferring their tenancy rights.
The Pagdi system provides tenants with security of tenure, allowing them to occupy the property indefinitely. The legal heirs of the original tenants are entitled to have the tenancy transferred in their names. To support such claims, having a rent receipt issued by the landlord is essential, as it serves as evidence of the tenancy. The residual legal heirs may need to provide documentation to prove their status as per the Maharashtra Rent Control Act. A standalone ration card may not be sufficient to support the claim without additional evidence of tenancy.
