Kindly Advice.
I am in rent in a house for more than 10 years. I use it for my office. I used to rent two parts of the building before and it was 22 years ago. I returned one part. The present house i am using as my office is with us for more than 10 years. In between the the landlord -the original owner Mr.Papanna had died long back and his son Mr.Sidderwara had rented this house to me. He also died some 8 years ago and i have transfered the rental agreement to his wife Mrs. Sharadamma. This people have no children. She lives in another house in the same building. The main house and our is a side house. she lives with her brother and sister in law. Now Mrs. Papanna and her daughter have claimed their rights and have gone to court and they have made me also a party to the case. I did not go to court because it does not interest me, as their family dispute. I used to pay Rs.3200/month as rental/month and have paid an advance of Rs.50,000.00. Now the rentals in the area have gone up very much more. The building is also 45 years old and the present owner Mrs. sharadamma has asked us to vacant the house in three months. I have no intention of troubling them, but i have my own constrains and i do not have enough money to move to another house by paying more rent. She has not taken the rent for this month. What is the solution. Can I take some more time from the court -Same court which has the family case going on or i should approach another court for little time. Or should i just wait till the advance money just gets adjusted in the rent. What might be the costs for going to court. -Thanks for your help in advance. -Prasad.
