This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir,
I am staying at hyderabad. It is an apartment with 7 flats and a penthouse. I have given 2 months advance and one month rent in advance to my landlord in Nov2004. Since then I have been paying the rent of ecery month in advance. I have asked him a receipt for the deposit amount and the receipt for rent also, but he is denying for it. he increases the rent by his own will, no rule. If I make some complaint regarding some problem, he straight away says to leave the flat.I was in 1BHK on 3rd floor, now I am willing to shift in 2BHK on 1st floor in same appartment. I have some problem, so I cannot change the flat for another 6-8 months. Some issues have been there between the landlord and the other tenants regarding rent and deposit. Kindly guide me to what should I do.

If you have to change the apartment within 6-8 months, as you described in your query then tolerate the landlord for some more time if you are continuously bearing it since last 6 years an if you have to reside herein then dont pay him rent and let him go to rent controller wherein you shall pay rent honestly as agreed and he cannot enhance it till next 5 years and your possession over the flat shall also become legal.

In the absence of any lease or rental agreement, the landlord always exercises upperhand to exploit the tenants. You need to follow the guidance of our learned brother(RKM)
