This query is : Resolved
We have an immovable property in Bangalore, which is rented out to a couple of private companies. The rental agreement is made on stamp paper for 3 years and is renewable once in 3 years. I recently heard that rental / lease agreements are valid only if they are registered. Is that information correct ? Do I have to register the rent/lease agreement every time I renew it ?

Yes. Such agreements are not valid unless duly registered.

Sirs, thank you very much for the inputs. The rent is lesser than Rs. 50000.It is about Rs. 35000. Is it still required to be registered ?

Rightly said, agreements of more than 11 months validity should be registered.

Generally companies registered the agreement for the premises which they acquire under lease but it is optional as you are going to lease out less then eleven month and rent is less then fifty thousand.It is depend upon the company's system . better confirm it and ask them for stamp duty and registration fee also fee for the Advocate must.
