Landlord not returning my security deposit
20-Feb-2023 (In Landlord/Tenant Law)
I stay in Mumbai and rented a home in November 2014 valid up to August 31. We were four in the flat and all of us have paid the security deposit of 20k each. Except me others transferred online while I paid by cash as I didn't have internet banking active at that time. We vacated the flat in August 2015, the landlord says, since I don't have a proof, she'll not return my security deposit. It is clearly written in the receipt of agreement with signature of her. I was waiting if she would change her mind. But she says do whatever you want and I'll not return. Help on how to proceed.
If receipt acknowledging the returnable deposit is annexed by her in the agreement itself, she is bound to return it, you'll have to send a notice demanding the return of deposit to her and in the worst case you also might have to proceed against her through a Suit for such recovery. Kindly clarify and provide more details for a better answer. However, its subject to the contents of the receipt annexed to the agreement.
