1. File an "Eviction Suit" in the local Civil Court, against Husband and Wife. Application must be supported with proper documentary evidences and witnesses, to obtain a favourable Eviction Order.

Greetings!

Thank you for your questions.

To evict a tenant, one has to establish grounds for eviction, send a legal notice to the tenant to vacate the property, and provide them a reasonable time to reply.

If the tenant refuses to evict the property after receiving the notice, an Eviction suit has to be filed in a civil court under whose jurisdiction the rented property is situated.  

When can you evict a tenant-?

  1. Rent not paid- when tenant intentionally does not pay the rent on time.
  2. Sub-letting- when tenant without permission allows someone else to stay in the house.
  3. Damaging the property- when tenant damages the property and refuses to pay for damages.
  4. Self- use- if the landlord wants the property for personal use.
  5. Commercial use- when the tenant is using the residential property to run a business

Hope that answers your question.

 

Regards,

Karishma Yadav
