Questions people ask

Answers reviewed by enrolled advocates. Not legal advice for your specific matter.
Is an 11-month rent agreement valid without registration?Yes, everywhere except Maharashtra. Agreements under 12 months do not need registration under s.17 of the Registration Act. They do need the correct stamp duty, which the e-stamp provides.
Do I need a notary?No. Notarising a rent agreement is custom, not law. A stamped agreement signed by both parties and two witnesses is valid.
Is Aadhaar e-sign legally valid?Yes. Aadhaar e-sign is an electronic signature recognised under the Information Technology Act, 2000, and is accepted for agreements of this kind.
How much is the stamp duty?It depends on your state and, in some states, on the rent and the term. The exact figure is confirmed before you pay.
What if the tenant is in another city?Each person signs from their own phone with an Aadhaar OTP. Nobody needs to be in the same place.
Can I get it in my language?The questions are in all nine languages on the site — switch the language at the top. The agreement itself is prepared in English or Hindi.
