Pagadi property in mumbai..,..................
25-Apr-2025 (In Property Law)
Please disregard the category of issue.
My father has a house in pagadi system since 1980 in mumbai
He along with my mother purchased another ownership flat in 2011
Further..me along with my brother are considering to purchase a flat in our joint name.
Will this affect our claim on the pagadi house...because we have another ownership flat
Under the Pagdi system in Mumbai, tenancy rights are governed by the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, 1999. Merely owning another ownership flat does not automatically disqualify your or your family's claim over the Pagdi property. However, succession to tenancy rights generally favors the legal heir who was residing with the tenant at the time of their death. If none of you were residing there or if the landlord challenges succession, ownership of other properties may be used as a factor in court, but it's not solely decisive. Ensure proper documentation of continuous residence and utility bills to support your claim when required.

Under the Pagadi system in Mumbai, tenancy rights are generally governed by rent control laws and do not amount to ownership. However, acquiring another ownership flat does not automatically disqualify or affect your family's tenancy rights in the pagadi house, provided tenancy has been continuous and the rent is regularly paid. If your father is the original tenant and still alive, or the tenancy has been legally transferred, future purchase of a flat in your or your brother’s name should not affect your claim, though it might be relevant during succession or legal proceedings. It is advisable to consult a local lawyer for detailed advice based on exact documentation.
