Co-living company is defaulter of rent
Co-living company defaulter of rent for 9 months. Vacated the property by transferring 30% of 1 month rent, adjusting the 3 months security deposit towards 3 months rent and remaining months as waiver and repaired some damages but left uncleaned. The company signed with other properties and shifted the things there. All these are done without owners knowledge(owner is in abroad). The CEO of the company is not picking up owner call and only speaking to owner parents in threatening manner that if you don’t agree to our terms we will expose your property has violations of construction or if you file a suit. So owner parents agreed to their terms by just paying 30% of 1 month rent and not signed any agreements. Now the property is occupied by owner parents. 1. Can owner file a suit in future with/without unregistered lease document after his return from abroad?. 2. What are consequences when tenant bring up property violations in court?. 3. What will happen if owner wants to publish this news in media or newspaper ?. So that new owners will not get frustrated. 4. Since he is defaulter of more than 8 months rent what are his chances to defend the suit?. 5. What if owner parent signed the NOC but they are authorized.

If the lease agreement is unregistered then its against owner case if you go for filing case in the court.
So if you an send normal legal notice and can able to settled 8 months rent outside the court.
First you get the possession of property in your hands all the keys and your belongs.
If parents are authorized and given NOC then no issue in this regards.
Henceforth kindly registered all lease agreement so you should face any further consequence along with the clause mention of nature law and pandemic situation.
1. The owner can file a suit for eviction even now from abroad itself by giving a power of attorney document to a close relative to conduct the case in his absence.
You should not be carried away by the threats posed by the company, let them do whatever they want to including the complaint, that can be dealt with separately, but make sure that the company is paying you all dues and vacating the property since they turned out to be bad tenants hence they are liable to be evicted.
2. They cannot approach court for violations in construction, if at all they have any grievances in this regard, they may have to approach concerned local civic body,m but they cannot do that now because they had been under utilisation of the said property till now or continue to use the same as a tenant, and now their complaint in this regard may not be entertained.
Hence you dont be scared by such threats, you can ask them to proceed but be firm in your decision to vacate them.
3. Don't stretch your imaginations for committing such blunder mistakes, they would be of no use, it may not be advisable to resort to such unenforceable ideas.
4. Why do you worry about his defence, instead you concentrate in your own prosecution based on the grounds you rely upon and be undeterred while prosecuting the case against him.
5. The parent of the owner may withdraw his statement for NOC mentioning that he was forced to sign such a NOC under pressure and coercion, further the authorization should be by a GPA deed and not on a plain paper to make it valid.
The tenant vacated the property and there are few damages and repairs. We took the possession of the property now. Tenant forced my father to burn lease agreement after transferring 30% of 1 month rent. Both parties burnt unregistered lease agreement. This i got to know today. Last full rent was transferred to me in Feb 2020 and 30% of 1 month rent in Nov 2020 towards total rent from march to Nov 2020 and electricity bills are paid till NOV 2020 by tenant. 1. Can i file the suit against tenant without lease agreement?. 2. What evidences are required to prove in court without lease agreement?. 3. The tenant is still listing our apartment in their website and google maps. Can i file suit based on that?. 4. what are steps i need to take to pay arrears and damages from tenant?. Please advise

You need lease agreement to file case
2) agreement is evidence that x amount was payable as rentals
3) that tenant has defaulted in payment of rent and y is due and payable
1. The lease agreement is the basis for the proposed lawsuit, hence think about alternative evidence.
2. The oral evidence in this regard may not be maintainable, you may have to establish the landlord tenant relationship. If the rental amount was paid through bank transactions then that may be considered as an evidence.
3. You can first issue a legal notice restraining him from indulging in such illegal activities, if he's not complying then you can proceed legally.
4. In the same legal notice you can demand the arrears and damages.
