        Hey guys
        I am 28 F living in gurgaon since November in a rented property. Today I have given notice to my landlord that I will be vacating the premises by March end. However she has not returned the security of previous tenants who left so I have asked her to adjust my rent for March from security and I will pay whatever additional amount is needed. She initially shared a rent agreement but the dates on the agreement were wrong so I asked her to update it and reshare which she never did.FYI she has clearly mentioned while I was joining that there’s no lock in period and we just have to give her a month’s notice and the agreement also doesn’t have any lock in. I have a soft copy of her agreement as well as proof on chats where she is harassing me by threatening me if “I want to fight with her”. I also have chats and audio calls from other tenants mentioning she hasn’t refunded her security. One of the old tenant is also willing to give a witness on call that her security is not refunded, if I take a legal action.

        Can someone please help me? I am quite concerned about my personal safety as well as my belongings.

          No one can help you with regards to your personal safety, maybe you have to go to police. But as far as legality is concerned you dont have to pay her anything and go ahead as per your plan

            This isnโ€™t legal advice, but Gurgaon landlords are absolute crooks. They straight-up steal security deposits and then have the nerve to threaten legal action.

            One of my friends got screwed over like this, and another was scammed by a broker and landlord working togetherโ€”they took the money and then acted like they didnโ€™t know each other. These landlords are nothing but parasites, especially in Gurgaon, where they operate like a mafia.

                Very true I am hyperventilating since our conversation. My family is far off and can’t tell them anything too. Hope these people burn in hell

                  You haven’t seen bangalore landlords. They will never give you deposits.
