Landlady not returning security money what can i do


08-Jul-2023 (In Landlord/Tenant Law)
I had rented a shop for retail business in October 2016. The agreement was done between me and the landlady for a period of 11 months and I had paid three months rent as security deposit. I had to close down my business after running it for 6 months, as it failed to take off. Now the landlady is not ready to return my deposit money despite several requests. The agreement clearly states that I had to give them a month's notice before vacating (which I did in written) and also that she will return the deposit amount after that. Her husband is responding on her behalf, to whom I have refused to talk to as the property & the agreement has the lady's name. kindly suggest the sections in which I can send them a legal notice. How it can be done ?

At the stage of sending notice no mentioning of section is required only the refrence of the concert provision of the rent agreement needs to be referred. Thereafter you can approach to rent control tribunal for appropriate remedy. Book meeting for more detail.
