What if,I pay rent without receipts ?

Guest (Querist) 31 August 2010 This query is : Resolved
I am paying a monthly rent of Rs.12000/- for a shop hired by me since last six months without taking any receipt from the landlords,I have also given Rs.20000/-as security money to the landlord.

What if,my landlord suddenly starts saying that I have not paid any rent to him since last six months,would I have to pay the rent to him again ?

I fear ,if I would ask him to render me receipts,he would suspect me as if I have some bad intention in my mind and immediately he might ask me to evict the premises.

What is your precious suggestion,my dear learned friends ?

Now start paying rent by sending rent by cheque to avoid future problems. You can also give him a legal notice to give the receipts for the rent already paid.

Pay by cheques A/C Payee only. Show such payments as rents in your Books of A/Cs. & I.T. returns.

Don't think bad about collecting receipt for the payment made.Payment is made by you and it is your duty to collect receipt and not the owner to do so.
