Issue legal notice thru advocate wait for reply ,if they deny file suit for recovery of rent ,and also for eviction as the ownership has passed to lrs.as lease deed is unregistered you have to pay duty penalty,

1. Civil Court Legal Action CANNOT be initiated for recovery of any Rent /Lease arrears because the Lease Deed is not properly Stamp Duty paid and Not registered. However you may initiate Eviction Proceedings against the Tenant.
2. You can ALSO initiate Private Criminal Proceedings in a local Magistrates Court, by following due procedures of Law.

You can file an Eviction suit the Lease agreement though unregistered sometimes gets marked if the opposite lawyer is not diligent and if the Judge allows.
Even otherwise the agreement can be relied as a secondary evidence. Further the stamp duty and penalty is recoverable from the tenant since it is he who has to do the registration.
