How to handle unfair practices by landlord
26-May-2023 (In Landlord/Tenant Law)
Shop was on rent by my grandpa since 1947. From last 10 years owner filled a case to vacat the shop and he lost the cases at many times but last year he won at lower court but session court has hold the decision n then he applied in high court fir increase in user charges and judge increased the charges from 12000 to 78000 and now we have vacant last month on 24 tthe shop coz we cannot pay such a big amount and deposited the key in court but now he is asking for charges of May also.. Is 78000 user charge is not too much And when we have deposited the key in court on 29 april.. His appeal for charges of May is legal
Yes, the said landlord can not demand rent for the month of May, as you already vacated the said shop. Now, if the landlord enforces or compels you to deposit the said rent, just ignore his requests, as he can not take any action regarding the collection of rent for the month of may.

such kind of cases are a little complicated however court have no right to increase monthly rent from 12000 to 78000 at instant as under the rent control act have provson of maximum 10 percent or 15 percent at once or yearly depending upon state govt notification. do consult some good lwayer and contest your case.
