Many such cases are heard in the country where the tenant refuses to vacate the house. His argument behind this is that he has been living in this house for a long time. There are many such cases. But the question is whether the tenant actually stays in the same house for a long time or for 10 years, then he has the right to vacate the house. The Limitation Act 1963 says a lot about this. So let’s understand this.
In the same way, no tenant can have any right over the property of the landlord. But in some circumstances, the tenant can assert his authority at home. According to adverse occupation of the Property Transfer Act, a tenant has the right to sell property if he has been living in an property for 12 years or more.
If a tenant has adverse possession of the house, he is considered the owner of the property. Thus taking property is called adverse possession. However, the landlord can take it to court. According to the Boundary Act 1963, the statutory period of the limits on individual real estate is 12 years. This period starts from the day of possession. Accordingly, the rule goes in favor of the tenant.
The terms of adverse occupation are quite strict. But a small mistake of the landlord can put his property in dispute. Therefore, the most important thing is to make a rental agreement with your landlord before renting a house, shop or land. The rental agreement is only for 11 months. So keep making it every 11 months. If you do this, you will have proof that you have given your property to someone else. Your property is not occupied by anyone else.
