Hi,
I rented a three bedroom house. The agreement was through my Bank lease and the agreement was for 3 years for a rent of 24000/-(inclusive of maintanance Charges). An advance of Rs 2,40,000/- was paid by the bank. I was staying with my Wife, Son and Daughter in law. After 21/2 years the landlord suddenly locked down the terrace and prohibited us from using it for drying the cloths. When asked the landlady resorted to abuse us and said she is doing all these to make us vacate the house. They sent a notice to bank as well to discontinue the lease and in the letter my Son and Daughter in law were asked to evict the premises without any notice been served.
Now as the landlord has to return the advance paid to the bank . He is claiming that there were damages worth of 98000/- split as Follows: House repair - 40000/- , Maintanance, Vehicle parking , General EB, Lift Usage conributing to the remaining amount.
There is no actual damages in the house at all. He has Voided the agreement that he has to white wash the house every two years. When requested to supply us with bills and estimate for the above asked amount he is trying to evade us. Could you please advice us what needs to be done in this case.
I'm attaching the electricity bills from the common meter for past 1 year for reference. This should serve as the proof of the pudding on the other items the landlord. There is no other maintanance requirement as this a individual house with just 2 floors one occupied the owner and another rented to us. There is no house maid even!!!
