Can my landlord evict me for having a guest?
I currently live in a co-op housing society on a leave and license. My girlfriend is visiting from the US and wants to stay with me for the duration of her visa(6 months) Can the landlord deny that?

What if it's not a part of the agreement? Can the society deny her? I live in Thane(Maharashtra)

Normally a house taken on rent cannot be sublet in part or whole of the house. If you collect rent from the guest that will amount to subletting. If a guest stays for six months continuously, a suspicion can arise that you have sublet the house. But that you have actually sublet is difficult to prove. If the landlord sees a stranger in the house he can ask you in writing the status of the stranger. If you do not reply the suspicion will be strengthened. Further how will the landlord know that the guest will quit.

We are willing to provide a copy of the visa and plane ticket to the owner.

If the landlord ever asks you or take objection, you can show him the visa and the plane ticket. Good luck.
