If such terms are not a part of the agreement, then he cannot, but if there is a lock in period in the agreement and some maintenance to be done by you, then the agreement has to be seen first. You may send him a legal notice. You may also drop a detailed query at [email protected]

approaching the court would be expensive and time consuming task. better settle the matter with the help of other tenants.

Dear Madam,

Since there are no such clauses in the Agreement for Leave and License (ALL), your Owner does not have the right to deduct all these expenses. You should report the matter to the Police if he does not refund back your entire Deposit (net of recoveries for electricity charges, cable and parking charges if any) and you should handover the keys of the flat to the Owner only on receipt of your Deposit.

Regards,
