Contended that we did not inform about our shifting deducting rent


03-Dec-2023 (In Landlord/Tenant Law)

We shifted our house last month on 30.11.2015 and prior to our shifting we have informed the House Owner on 09.11.2015 (while paying rent for the month) regarding the same and the Owner agreed. After premises inspection on yesterday ie., 02.12.2015 she contended that we did not inform her about our shifting before 3 months as per the agreement deed and so she will repay after deducting 3 months rent from the advance paid. Is it valid as per the law ? We know that the advance will be repaid after deduction of one month's rent.
