Document background
The Notice of Proposed Rent Increase is a fundamental document in Indian rental property management, used when property owners or their representatives intend to modify existing rental terms. This notice must be issued in accordance with state-specific rent control laws and the Model Tenancy Act, 2021, typically requiring advance notice periods ranging from one to three months depending on the jurisdiction. The document should be used whenever a landlord plans to increase rent within legal limits, providing clear documentation of the proposed changes, justification if required, and compliance with local regulations. It serves as both a legal requirement and a professional courtesy, helping maintain transparent communication between parties while protecting both landlord and tenant interests under Indian law.
