Paying Guest Accommodation Agreement
(Leave and licence basis)
This agreement is made at city on date between:
Owner name, residing at owner’s address (the “Owner”), and
Paying guest name, permanently residing at permanent address (the “Paying Guest”).
The Owner runs a paying guest accommodation at property address (the “Premises”) and agrees to let the Paying Guest stay there on the following terms.
1. Accommodation
The Paying Guest may occupy room / bed at the Premises, with shared use of the common areas and the facilities listed in clause 9. This agreement is a licence to stay and does not create a tenancy, or any right of possession or ownership over any part of the Premises.
2. Term
This agreement is for 11 months, from start date to end date. It may be renewed by mutual written consent, and the rent may be revised at renewal.
3. Rent and due date
The monthly rent is ₹9,000 (Nine Thousand Rupees Only), payable in advance on or before the 5th of every month by UPI, bank transfer or cash against a receipt.
Electricity charges are included in the rent.
4. Late payment
If rent is not paid by the due date, a late fee of ₹50 per day of delay will be payable. If rent remains unpaid for more than 15 days after the due date, the Owner may end this agreement under clause 11.
5. Security deposit
The Paying Guest has paid an interest-free security deposit of ₹18,000 (Eighteen Thousand Rupees Only). It will be refunded within 7 days of vacating, after deducting any unpaid rent or charges, the cost of repairing damage beyond normal wear and tear, and lost keys or access cards. The deposit cannot be adjusted against the last month’s rent unless the Owner agrees in writing.
6. Notice period and lock-in
Either party may end this agreement by giving 30 days’ notice in writing (a WhatsApp message or SMS counts as written notice). If the Paying Guest leaves without giving full notice, rent for the shortfall in the notice period may be deducted from the security deposit.
There is a lock-in period of 3 months from the start date. If the Paying Guest vacates before it ends, rent for the remaining lock-in period is payable and may be recovered from the security deposit.
7. Use of premises and house rules
The Premises will be used only for residence by the Paying Guest. The Paying Guest will not sublet or share the room or bed with anyone, will not carry on any business or unlawful activity, and will follow the house rules in Schedule A, which the Owner may update with reasonable notice.
