Landlord refusing to return security deposit what can I do
01-Jul-2023 (In Landlord/Tenant Law)
If the rental agreement period is expired then the tenancy stands terminated if not renewed,
Under the situation it becomes the duty of the landlord to refund the security deposit after deductions for minor repairs, painting services and balance of rental amount, if any.
If the rent agreement period is not expired then the clauses for notice for vacating the tenanted premises is to be seen.
If there was no rental agreement in writing and the tenancy was oral, you may communicate your decision to vacate the house/premise in writing by registered post to the landlord and specify the date of vacation while making a demand for the refund of the security deposit held by him.
If there is no response, you may issue a lawyer's notice and draw him to court for recovery.
