Rent increased by landlord every 11th month

If there was a clause to raise rent every 11 months in the rent agreement, you have to abide by it.If you feel the rent is excessice than you can plead with the rent controller. In qny event, the relationship will get srrained.

Yes you have to be ready to go to the court than no increase will be allowed.

Hi Issac,

As stated above....

"Right from the starting or Day 1 my landlord refused to give rental agreement and rent receipts". Therefore there is no agreement made between Landlord and myself to increase the rent every 11th Month by Landlord.

Is there any clause in Rental Agreement Act to increase rent every 11th month for a purely residential property.

Thanks

yes every 11 month normally the owner will hike the rent amount. it is normal and routine , As simple as if your not willing to continue or feel the owner demand more amount as rent, then either vocate the place . or pay it.

Hi Sankar,

Please forward me the link which clear states that as per Rental Control Act the rent need to be hiked every 11 months thou an agreement is not made between the Tenant and Landord. As far as my knowledge is concerned 10% hike is accepted only after 3rd Year and followed by 5% every 2 Years.

Thanks

Please check whether  the agreement between you and landlord specifies clearly about the duration and amount for increase in rent. Both of you need to follow the terms of the agreement. However, you should demand for a copy of the agreement as you are a party in the agreement

Dear Mr. Kumar_JrLawyer

Please give me the section for your say

Dear Gentleman,

The Rent Control act favours the tenent in many ways, Once you think of going there, your landlord may try to disturb initially BUT Later will keep begging you man..

By The way hike as demanded above even it is mentioned in the rent agreement any amount of % between parties is not valid in the eye of Law.

If you really serious to teach the lesson to the land lord and fight for your right just go ahead and put an application stating your grievances at Rent Control Officer in your city...

Where is the rent controllers office in your area?

Tripti & Om Shanker have given the correct reply

Even if the tenant has signed and agreed to a rent deed which stipulates say a 10% increase, it is not valid as per the rent control act

But it has to be ascertained whether rent control act is applicable to your premises

There are very technical legal stipulations inteh law and not all preimses are covered under the RCA
