As he pays the rent on time, you should indicate a reason for the evacuation, either for personal use or for the renovation, in accordance with existing rental legislation. Since the Rent Control Act only applies to a lease of more than 12 months, it seemed more difficult for landlords to evict tenants who live in the property for years. The 2015 Model Rental Law, which has recently been the subject of new ones, aims to make things easier for both landlords and tenants, by addressing early evictions, withdrawal issues, as well as reciprocal rent fixing and review. Laws now allow landlords to market a tenant for breach of the rental agreement; subletting of leased premises or part thereof without the permission of the lessor; delay in the payment of rent for a given period; abuse of property; or to carry out illegal activities in the rented premises. The landlord also has the right to distribute a tenant if he needs the building for his own use. Most landlords prefer a lease and a license agreement. This agreement only grants the tenant a license to use the property for a period of 11 months, with an option to renew periodically. Since rent control laws (largely tenant-friendly) only apply to leases of at least 12 months, the creation of an 11-month contract serves as a preventive measure. While the COVID-19 pandemic is not an expected event, it does not meet a tenant`s requirement to suspend rent payments. The Delhi government had limited civic movement in the city from March 23 due to Covid 19 cases that appeared at that time in the capital.
Many tenants are facing a financial crisis because of the coronavirus and cannot pay the rent. If the tenant is late in renting, landlords suffer and may not be able to meet their own financial obligations such as mortgage payments for the rented property, electricity and water costs, insurance, maintenance, property tax, etc. Although Covid-19, it is necessary that owners do not transmit notifications or search for property during this difficult period and in unprecedented circumstances, in order to keep each other safe and without a very good reason, and to further facilitate measures such as health and safety during the lockdown period. Tenants should continue to pay rent and comply with all other terms of their lease. The lease agreement should ideally include options for action in the event of non-payment of rent. Nevertheless, non-payment of rent due is one of the common reasons for evicting a tenant in all national rent laws. . . .
