Tenancy Eviction Notice

No Urgency is allowed: Tenants enjoy the same rights when they take a property on rent and become tenants. Landlords have no right to vacate the property on an urgent basis. There is a certain procedure, to be followed for this.

Notice Period for 12 Months: The landlord is not allowed to give this reason to the tenant that he wants to rent the property at a higher rent. He is not allowed at all. He can use any other reason like he wants to sell, renovate it, maintain, or kind of personal use for him or any family member, etc. But the landlord or the tenant has to give a 12-month notice to the tenant. As per the law, this notice is compulsory. Whether the landlord wants to sell or, wants to shift for his personal use, he has to give a 12 months notice period. This notice should be sent from a notary which means notary attestations. It can also be sent through a registered Email. We suggest it is good if it is sent by Email and Notary, together. It has to be made sure that the tenant receives the notice.

Time: Landlord can serve this notice anytime during the tenancy period. But notice must be 12 months in duration. The date must be clearly mentioned and written.

Renewals: If the landlord does not send the notice before the three months then he has to give the right to landlord, to renew the property for next 12 months but if he serves less than three months then, tenant can renew for 12 months or he can also evacuate on tenancy contract expiry date.

Both Parties have the right to file a case against each other in case, there is a dispute. If the property is evacuated because the landlord wants to sell then the owner can’t rent the property further. 12 month Notice period is mandatory.

Rental Dispute Centre is the place, where landlord and the tenant can file the case.
