Answer(1)

Answer 1

You must send a written notice via a lawyer, clearly stating the reason for eviction and a deadline for them to vacate. Notice Period: Generally, a 15-day or 30-day notice is required, depending on the ground (e.g., 15 days if the agreement has expired or for non-payment). Send the notice via Registered Post or courier with acknowledgement, f the tenant ignores the notice or refuses to leave, you must file a petition with the Rent Tribunal (or Rent Controller) under the Punjab Rented Premises Act 2009.

Answer 6

First of you should have a valid legal ground, such as the expiry of the tenancy agreement, nonpayment of rent, unofficial renting, breach of contract, or property damage. If any of the scenarios then draft a formal written notice to the tenant. Write and mention the specific breach or expiry of the agreement and provide a sensible timeframe to empty the buildings. Even afterwards the tenant refuses to empty, file an eviction petition before the Rent Tribunal (Rent Controller) in the jurisdiction where the property is located. Attach the tenancy agreement, proof of ownership, and the legal notice. Then Rent Tribunal will issue notices to the tenant, directing them to appear. The tenant must file an application seeking "Leave to Defend" to contest the eviction. If they do not file, or if the Tribunal rejects their application, an immediate eviction order is typically passed. If the Tribunal grants the leave to defend, both parties will submit their evidence, including documents and witness testimonies, followed by cross-examination. After hearing final arguments, the Rent Tribunal will pass its order. If the eviction order is granted but the tenant does not leave the house, then, file an execution petition. The Tribunal will issue warrants of possession, utilizing police assistance if necessary to physically evict the tenant.
