Hi,
I am Saroj Meher working as an Asst. Manager - Finance in a MNC at Mumbai. My office has been taken upon a lease and License agreement from Apr 07 to Dec 09. On expiry we again made a fresh Leave and License Agrement (registered with the Registrar, Goregaon (W)) for a further period of 3 years and at the time of executing the agreement, we had paid the rent for the entire year 2010 in advance by way of cheque. Also we have given Rs. 20 lacs towards Security Deposit. Our landlord had not paid the society charges and hence his name appears in the notice board under the defaulter's list since the last 1 year. Recently, the secretary of the society of our office builing called up to inform that they will be taking necessary legal actions against the landlord. Under such circumstances, what are our rights as a licensee in case the society takes necessary legal action.
