Approach a local lawyer.
Ask him to send a Legal Notice to the Tenant informing him that you have no intention of renewing the premises after the expiry of the lease period on 3.4.2016.
This notice may be asked to be treated as a notice in terms of Clause 12 of the Agreement.
Accordingly, the tenant may be asked to vacate and hand over peaceful vacant possession of the premises upon expiry of lease period on 3.4.2016.
Also suitably make a mention about the refund of the interest free deposit.
