When you need it

Many commercial leases give the tenant an option to renew for a further term if it asks in the right way and in time. The right is lost if the notice is late, goes to the wrong address, or does not say what the lease requires.

Read more

This notice is how a tenant exercises that option in writing: it identifies the lease, names the clause that gives the option, states the end date of the current term and the length and start of the new term, says what rent the renewal is on, confirms the tenant is up to date, and asks the landlord to confirm and to sign the renewal paper. Use it when your lease has a renewal option and the date by which the lease says notice must be given is near or has not yet passed. Check the lease for the exact notice period, the address for notices and the way notices must be delivered, and send this notice in that way. Not for: a lease that has no renewal option (in that case ask the landlord for a fresh lease or a lease renewal agreement), a notice to end the lease, or a notice from the landlord. The notice does not itself extend the lease if the lease requires a new signed document; it starts the process the lease describes.

What follows is written for Punjab and Chandigarh. It states the position there rather than describing how it varies, so the amounts below are the ones that apply — worth confirming at the sub-registrar’s office, because rates change. If the property is anywhere else in India, none of this is yours.

Stamp duty

A notice is not an agreement and needs no stamp paper in Punjab or Chandigarh. The renewal itself is another matter: depending on how the lease is written, the renewal may need a stamped renewal deed, charged on the figures that apply to leases at that time. Check the current figure with the Sub-Registrar or a licensed stamp vendor; this notice does not state one.

Registration

This notice does not need registration. A renewal of a lease for the terms that the law treats as needing registration may itself need to be registered. Ask the Sub-Registrar or a lawyer once the renewal term and rent are settled.

Notarisation

Not required. Proof of delivery matters more than notarisation: use registered post with acknowledgement or a courier with proof of delivery, and keep the receipt.

Witnesses

Not required. Keep proof that the notice was sent and received.
