Return of security deposit

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 23 September 2011 This query is : Resolved
I entered into the Leave and License agreement (registered) with the owner of the flat. I stayed in the flat for two months. I gave the owner a notice of one month in the middle of second month. Do I need to give him full rent for the third month?

As per our L&L agreement, we can give each other a notice of one month before vacating the flat.

Another point is that, the owner deducted the agents commission (he paid one months rent to agent) and registration charges from the security deposit saying that we have not stayed in that flat for a minimum period of six months. Can he do this? In our agreement it is not mentioned that we have to stay in that flat for a minimum period of six months.

What action i can take to get the balance deposit?

Thanking you in anticipation.

file summary suit for recovery of balance of security deposit .
if agreement does not provide that you have to stay for minimum 6 months then licensor cannot make any arbitray deductions on said account

Your query is governed by the agreement,unless agreement provides the same ,land lord can make none of the deduction mentioned by you,but as of now you have only
one option to file a recovery suit as advised if land lord is not ready to return the amount in question.
