The lesser leased out his premises under a simple agreement for a period of 12 months (See the agreement attached)
Though it is not mentioned in the lease, the lessee orally agreed that he will not vacate it before 12 months and this is also reflected in the clause which says as under :
“The Period of Lease Agreement shall be 12 months commencing from 10th October 2012 to 9th October 2013.”
However, there is another contradictory clause which says
“The Lessee shall give a notice 30 days in advance in writing to the Lessor if it desires to terminate the Rent Agreement.
Contrary to the understanding and the clause of 12 months, the lessee vacates in just 45 days, after causing lot of expenses in the premises. The lessee also gives a notice on email and asks for a refund of the Security Deposit.
Questions:
Can the lesser compel the lessee to pay for the entire 12 months on the basis of above agreement which has been executed on a Rs 100 stamp paper
What is the legal status of a notice received on email? Can the lessor deny receiving such a notice and take advantage?
