If there is a written lease deed then both of you are strictly governed by its terms and conditions.

So refer to the deed and check if the landlord had the discretion to deduct any sum of money on these grounds.

If no,then his refusal to refund the said said sumofmonye isboth civil and criminal worng.

In that respect you can lodge complaint with Police of cheating.

Once FIR is registered you can see refund within a reasonably short time.

It is necessary to peruse terms and conditions of lease deed signed by you

2) you are not bound to pay painting charges ,rentals unless there is clause in lease deed to that effect

Hi,

Police will not help you in this regard.

You need to file a money suit for recovery of your due amount in the civil court.

The court will order the payment of out standing amount and interest there on including the litigation expeses.

Please send a legal notice to your landlord.

Send a legal notice to the lessor and seek all your refunds in terms of the lease agreement.

He cannot make any deductions in the name of colouring, cleaning etc., in case the same is supported under the lease agreement.

Any deductions has to be in accordance with the stipulations contained in the lease agreement and not otherwise.

As advised, send a legal notice seeking payment of your dues.

There are two things one is mortgage deed and lease agreement. If you paid him lumpsum amount then it's mortgage deed. Hope it is registered or you may have to pay 100% stamp duty. If it's lease agreement you will be paying him monthly rent. There is no word as rent in transfer of property act. Since you filed a suit for recovery of money you can get back entire amount.

You have to file a money recovery suit in the civil court which you have rightly done.

Conduct the case and place your merits and arguments convincingly before court to win the case.

You are right that in lease agreement there is no question of payment of monthly rentals especially if there is no mention about this in the lease agreement.

You can utilise this position in your favor.

Thre is a lease deed of 2yrs as un extension.but due to certain issues I planned to vacate n he got agreed with another new tenant of lease in the same house.vut its nt mentioned in the deed about any rental .so he had also bounced one of the chq he had issued.so I made a magistrate court based civil criminal case agnst him...

There is nothing wrong in filing cheque bounce case as well as money recovery suit simultaneously.

You can proceed.

You need to show the same in court that he has deducted illegal charges from you. You can show that nothing was there in the lease agreement.
