Why you need it

When you need it

For a landlord needing a written undertaking on a defined risk — tenant-caused damage, agreed-use compliance, or a temporary-possession condition — not a sweeping 'liable for everything' promise. Article 34, Punjab-amended stamp schedule treats an indemnity bond like a security bond, so stamping may differ from a plain covenant. A breach isn't a shortcut to eviction. Defines the obligation, loss scope, exclusions, cure period and any cap.
