Hi, if the landlord not willing to continue the tenancy in your favour then even though you can approach the court but you will not get any relief. You have no right to claim transfer of tenancy in your favour.

2. Tenant has no right to transfer his interest by way of will....that is the meaning.

1) you can approach the court for transfer of tenancy rights in your father on demise of your father

2) tenancy rights cannot be bequeathed by will . the SC in the abovementioned judgement held that tenancy rights cannot be bequeathed by will

This matter will be governed by the Maharashtra Rent Control Act. It is not clear from the facts narrated by you, whether at the time f the death of your father, besides him who were residing with your deceased father as his family members. If all the members were residing with your father at the time of his death then all the heirs will be entitled to the tenancy right. Upon death of the tenant those who were residing with the deceased tenant will be entitled to the tenancy right. Therefore qua the landlord all the heirs will be joint tenant while inter se the heirs they may be co-tenant. Such agreement is required to be acceptable to the landlord because the heirs amongst themselves can not impose upon the landlord as tenant a man of straw or by make-believe devise or assertion a man who may be really not entitled to become tenant. You can not force the landlord to transfer the tenancy right in the name of all the heirs as the landlord can issue rent receipt in favour of anyone of the heirs. There is no difficulty in continuing the tenancy in the name of your late father.

The tenancy rights are heritable under most of the State's Rent Control Act. Therefore after the death of the tenant it passes in favour of the heirs of the deceased tenant.

As per Maharashtra Rent Control Act the tenancy right in of the business premises devolve upon any member of the tenant's family who is using the premises for any such purpose tenant at the time of death of such tenant. In absence of such member any heir of the deceased tenant will be entitled to the tenancy right. After the death of the tenant, the question of termination of tenancy does not arise.

2] What is the meaning of the below mentioned statement, in simple terms:

" A tenant can not dispose off his interest even by the testamentary disposition i.e. Will as held by the Supreme Court in the matter of Dr. Anant Trimbak Sabnis V/S Vasant P. Pandit."

This is during the lifetime of the tenant. It is confirmed by Supreme court that a tenant cannot bequeath his tenancy to his heirs. The property belongs to the landlord.

The law gave the heirs of a tenant the right to continue to reside in the premises even after the original tenant died.The law qualified that this right was only available to an heir who was residing with the tenant at the time of his death.

1. The duration of tenancy does not impair the right of the landlord to seek the eviction of tenant. You will be given a fair opportunity by the court to contest the case for eviction.

2. It means that a tenant cannot transfer the property as he is not the owner.
