Lease Agreement on wife's name fully paid by husband money
02-Nov-2023 (In Civil Law)
I made a rental lease agreement of 3 lakh (only bond not registered) on my wife's name fully paid to house owner by me through cheque... now we are in matrimonial dispute (she filed false 498a and me applied for divorce) she is no longer here with me... Can she claim that lease money? How can I protect it and get the money back?
First of all, whether the lease money can be claimed back by your wife or not depends on the terms of the rental lease agreement. Whether the said rental lease agreement is registered or not is immaterial with regards to this aspect. Assuming that you are still residing in the said house or still have possession of the same, it is not likely that your wife would be able to claim the lease money. However in case a dispute regarding the said lease money arises in future, subject to the terms of your rental lease agreement, the fact that the cheque was issued by you and that you are still in possession of the house and moreover intent to continue the same, shall be of help to you.
