Hi, lease for more than 11 months has to be registered before the sub-register and in you case is not done if you file a case in the court you are ready to pay 10 times duty and penalty on that agreement, first you have to issue a legal notice for vacating the premises if he does not vacate then file a suit for eviction.
1. Did you register the lease agreement with the lessee? An unregistered agreement cannot be read in evidence.
2. As per the clause incorporated in the lease, renewal was to take place after a mutual agreement.
3. Issue a lawyer's notice to the lessee to vacate, and if he does not do so, file a suit for his eviction in the court.
The lease was term lease and determined by efflux of the time limited thereby.So,you have got right to evict him from the premises in accordance with law.Proceed against him to that end.
Thanking you,
1. If the said Lease Agreement has not been registered then it is not legally enforceable,
2. Your only option now is to file an eviction suit against your said leasee.
A. Any lease agreement more than 11 months must be registered in the eyes of law and If you want to vacate or evict the tenant you need to register the lease agreement else the lease agreement will be impounded by the Court.
B.Issue a legal notice to the tenant by mentioning the increase of rent and insist to pay the same. In case the tenant fails to do so, you can approach the court by filing suit for eviction, but the agreement should have a sufficient stamp duty and registration.
