The landlord may consider to forgo or charge reduce rate of rent for the lockdown peroid. 

Legally you have to pay full amount of rent as per terms and conditions of the rent agreement, no escape/ excuse, whether you have opened clinic or not.

In spite of lockdowm, you are liable to pay. It is only that non-payment would not be ground to seek your eviction.

Can a patient evade fees stating that there is no improvement in his position even after treatment by the doctor?
