Quick Summary

A senior citizen in South Mumbai, who purchased a Pagdi apartment in 2003, is facing refusal from their non-citizen landlord to sell the property or pay the prevailing area amount. The owner, whose name is on the rent receipt, believes they have the right to sell as the absolute owner. They are seeking clarification on whether selling without the landlord's consent constitutes a criminal offence and the potential consequences under the Rent Act.

If you have purchased the property by a registered sale deed, then there is no necessity for you to obtain permission from a third person to sell your property.
You may revert with proper details so that proper opinion can be rendered.

Being a absolute owner of apartment you have every right to transfer it to anyone through sell,gift or other mode.you need not take permission from anyone and no one has right to prevent you for sell or transfer the apartment.

Even in the pagdi system property since the rental agreement is on your name, the landlord cannot evict you forcibly.
