Important clauses which should be covered in a Rent Agreement

When drafting a rental agreement, including the following clauses can help protect both the landlord and tenant and avoid potential disputes:

1. Payments: Clearly state the amounts for rent, monthly maintenance, and security deposit to avoid confusion. Specify the due date for rent payment each month.
2. Late Payment Penalty: Outline the penalty or additional charges that the tenant may incur for delayed rent payments.
3. Lock-in Period: Specify the minimum duration during which neither party can terminate the contract to prevent unexpected early termination.
4. Consequences of Overstay: Clearly state the penalties or charges if the tenant continues to occupy the property after the lease term is over without renewing the agreement.
5. Food Habits: If the landlord has specific restrictions on food habits within the property (e.g., no consumption of non-vegetarian food, alcohol, or drugs), explicitly mention those restrictions in the agreement.
6. Pets: If the landlord does not permit pets on the property, include a clause stating that pets are not allowed.
7. Maintenance and Repairs: Define the responsibilities of both parties regarding property maintenance and repairs. Specify who is responsible for certain types of repairs and how they should be reported and addressed.
8. Subletting: Clearly state whether subletting the property is allowed or not. If allowed, outline the conditions and requirements for subletting.
9. Security Deposit: Clearly mention the amount of the security deposit and the conditions under which it will be refunded to the tenant at the end of the lease term.
10. Notice Period: Specify the notice period required by both parties for early termination of the agreement.
11. Entry and Inspection: Establish guidelines for how and when the landlord can enter the property for inspection or maintenance purposes.
12. Use of Property: Outline the permissible use of the property by the tenant and any restrictions or prohibitions on certain activities.
13. Utilities and Bills: Clarify whether utilities like water, electricity, gas, etc., are included in the rent or need to be paid separately by the tenant.

The Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act, 2019 for Ladakh

The Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act, 2019 is an act of the Parliament of India that was passed on August 9, 2019. The act dissolved the existing state of Jammu and Kashmir and created two union territories (UTs) in its place: Jammu and Kashmir, and Ladakh.

The act also made a number of other changes, including:

• Abolishing the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Council
• Repealing 153 state laws
• Extending 106 central laws to the UTs
• Giving the central government more control over the UTs

The act was met with mixed reactions. Some people supported the changes, arguing that they would bring more stability and development to the region. Others opposed the changes, arguing that they would undermine the autonomy of Jammu and Kashmir and its special status in the Indian constitution.

Here are some of the key provisions of the act:

• Formation of two union territories: The act divides the Indian-administered state of Jammu and Kashmir into two union territories, Jammu and Kashmir, and Ladakh. Ladakh will be administered by a lieutenant governor alone, while Jammu and Kashmir will have a legislative assembly.
• Representation in the Lok Sabha: Of the six Lok Sabha seats allocated to the former state, one will be allocated to Ladakh and five to the Jammu and Kashmir union territory.
• Extension of central laws: The act extends 106 central laws to the UTs of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh. This includes laws on criminal law, civil procedure, and land revenue.
• Repeal of state laws: The act repeals 153 state laws. This includes laws on the state’s constitution, the state legislature, and the state judiciary.
• Changes to the Jammu and Kashmir Constituent Assembly: The act abolishes the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Council. It also changes the composition of the Jammu and Kashmir Constituent Assembly, which is now made up of members of the legislative assembly and the national parliament.

The act came into effect on October 31, 2019.

Stamp and Registration Charges

Regarding registration, it is not mandatory for rent agreements with a duration of less than 11 months in Ladakh. However, if you plan to create an agreement for more than 11 months, registration becomes mandatory.

The stamp and registration charges for rent agreement in Ladakh are as follows:

• For less than 11 months tenancy (If Not Registered):
  • Stamp duty: Rs. 100
  • Registration charges: Nil
• For less than 11 months tenancy (If Registered):
  • Stamp duty: 3% of the annual rent
  • Registration charges: 1.2% of the annual rent
• For more than 11 months tenancy:
  • Stamp duty: 7% of the annual rent
  • Registration charges: 1.2% of the annual rent

For example, if the annual rent is Rs. 1,00,000, then the stamp duty and registration charges for a rent agreement for less than 11 months will be Rs. 3,000 and Rs. 1,200 respectively. For a rent agreement for more than 11 months, the stamp duty and registration charges will be Rs. 7,000 and Rs. 1,200 respectively.

Please note that these are the general rates and the actual charges may vary depending on the location of the property.

• The stamp duty and registration charges are payable by the tenant.
• The rent agreement must be registered with the concerned registering authority within 30 days of its execution.
