Security deposit

The Maharashtra Tenancy Act caps security deposits at three months' rent for residential properties. In Andheri West, landlords typically collect two to three months' rent. Ensure your agreement specifies the refund process and timeline upon vacating, minus any legitimate deductions for damages.

Notice period

A one-month notice period is standard for vacating a PG. Provide this in writing; digital communication, such as a WhatsApp thread, is legally admissible in Maharashtra. Confirm receipt with your landlord to avoid disputes.

Rent receipt

Landlords must issue rent receipts for all payments. These receipts should clearly state the amount, date, property address, and names of both parties. Retain all receipts as proof of payment and for HRA claims.

Red flags to watch

Demanding 'token' advance without property viewing. Unrealistically low rent for prime Lokhandwala spots. Landlord avoids meeting, insists on digital payment. No proper agreement before full payment
