The rental law in India empowers landlords to file an eviction suit against their tenants provided justified reasons and specific conditions. Some of these are:

  • If the tenant intentionally fails to pay the rent amount (stated in the rental agreement) for more than 15 days after the due date, you can file the eviction suit.
  • If the tenant has sublet an already rented house/flat/property to another person without your consent or acknowledgment.
  • If you aim to make another building that requires the demolition of the existing property.
  • If you require the property for your own occupation or for any of your family members.
  • If there is a loss of property’s value or its utility owing to the tenant’s action.
  • If there is a requirement to repair or renovate the property which is not possible without vacating the property.
  • If the tenant has utilized the property for purposes that do not comply with the Indian law.
  • If the neighborhood finds any action of your tenant objectionable and you receive perpetual complaints regarding the same.
