Landlady not giving rent receipts and not showing electricity bill


11-Aug-2023 (In Landlord/Tenant Law)
My Landlady does not give me rent receipts after I pay my monthly rent saying that she does not give rent receipts to anyone and that giving me a rent receipt would require her to pay tax. Also, when I told her that I needed a photocopy of the electricity bill for a bank requirement (for a credit card, to be specific), what she did to me was no less than a harassment. In effect, I have been denied both these rights. What can/should I legally do? Please help.

In this case you can deny to give the rent and if she says something else then you can send her a legal notice and make your demands in an appropriate manner. You can also file a civil suit if you think any of your right has been violated.
