This query is : Resolved
Respected Learned Experts, I have leased out my premises to a Central Government Corporation for a period of 5 years. After the period of five years, I have demanded the revision of rent of 20% additional to the existing rate. The Officer in charge has refused to revise and orally informed that they shall vacate the premises. Even after the lapse of 1 year, they have neither renewed the lease nor vacated the premises. They are paying the old rent for the past 1 year directly to my account. In the above circumstances, how can either I revise the rent or vacate the Corporation. If any case laws in the matter may please be mentioned in y our response. Thanks to all the Learned Experts in anticipation.
With respectful regards.

You can issue a legal notice informing them about the enhanced rent to be paid with effect from from the date of effect, failing which you may ask them to vacate and deliver vacant possession
After that you can file an eviction suit if they still do not vacate

Yes. You shall issue a legal notice t to the Joint Director (Accounts) of Corporation Affairs regarding the enhancement of rent and payment of arrears of rent or vacate the building. If they do not take any action, you can file an eviction suit.
