A. Dear client,

The landlord must pay back the advance amount promised as a general rule. He should do so within a month of vacating.
You may issue a legal notice against the landlord to his residential address. You may also file a civil suit for recovery of money. This can be done under the provisions of Civil Procedure code.

It is a civil relief and acts as an effective remedy to recover money from the delinquent. The suit can be filed under Order IV of the Code of Civil Procedure 1908 (CPC) ...ReadMore
