Refund of Security Deposit of PG
07-Mar-2024 (In Recovery Law)
Hi, I am living in a PG in Delhi (albeit illegal) they before the agreement is over are increasing the rent and are also misbehaving. I have already searched for new dwelling and now want to shift asap. However they without my consent said that they will adjust the security deposit as this month rent which I don't want. I want to shift asap in my new flat. So, will they refund the deposit and if not what other options I have?
The most prudent course of action could be to consider sending them a formal legal notice. Such a notice could potentially prompt them to take your situation more seriously and, in turn, prompt them to refund your money. Opting for this approach rather than immediately resorting to filing a case might offer a more constructive resolution.
Sending a legal notice serves as a formal communication that indicates your seriousness about resolving the issue while also providing the other party with an opportunity to rectify the situation without the need for legal proceedings. This approach may incentivize them to address your concerns and take appropriate action to remedy the situation, potentially saving time and resources for both parties involved.
While the decision to send a legal notice should be carefully considered based on the specific circumstances of your case, it often presents a more amicable alternative to immediately pursuing legal action.

they will surely refund your deposit, if he is not refunding the deposit first send to him legal Notice, and complain to police for the behaviour, for which he is liable for punishment in the court

First of all rather than going legally you should serve him/her a legal notice and in that notice you can write that either pay my money or face legal action which will be at your own risk. After that if he/she fails to give you a satisfactory reply then you can anytime file a recovery suit in the court to claim your money back along with compensations.

you can file a police complaint against them for misappropriation of money and can also file a civil suit against them.
if your rent agreement has specifically mentioned the amount of rent and the duration then he cannot increase the rent in the middle of the term. ( however, I have to first go through the terms and conditions of the rent agreement to make a clear statement).
