Tenanted property

My mother has a tenanted commercial room in a Cessed  building in Mumbai, which she used to used for quite some time as her office premises. She retired in the year 2000, but still maintained the room and paid the landlord the rent. I am not sure how up to date she is with the rent payments.

Unfortunately she has fallen very sick six months ago.  She used to handle her own financial affairs independently, without involving her children, as a result we do not know much about her financial affairs. I am not able to understand anything she speaks.

Going thru her papers, I see rent receipts up to 1998, and subsequently I see some rent cheques made to the landlord, but I don't see any rent receipts.

I am not sure how I handle this situation with the landlord, as he may start demanding more money as I don't have rent receipts.

Looking for learned advice how to handle this situation?

Discuss with landlord and sort out your apprehension amicably, if any.

It is not a legal dispute for consideration and obligation of experts on this platform.

If cheques are issued the payments reflect in her Bank Statement.  Explain to the landlord and get things sorted out.
