‘2000 rupees to use the elevator? : Bangaluru man shares the owner after 82,000 rupees were reduced from a deposit of 1.5 rupees for cobs for strange reasons

One of them, ADIDIDED, Bengaluru, died with his ordeal with Malik, who claimed that he deduced more than half of the security deposit, indicating fees like $ 2000 to use the lift and $ 55,000 for paint, hit a nerve with tenants across India. This post has now become a massive cry to protect a better tenant in the main cities in India, where the stories of unorganized increases for rent, detained deposits and the owner’s misconduct are increasingly common.

Shravan Tickoo, who recently cleared 2BHK apartment on the Sarjapur Road in Bangaluru after he lived there for two years, shared his story on LinkedIn, in detail how the former property owner returned to only $ 68,000 of his deposit of $ 1.5 after imposing the educational charge.

“Recently, I moved from 2BHK on the Sarjapur Road after living there for two years, to a larger house,” Tickoo started his position.

“When I moved, Malik never spoke to me once in two years. The reason?

While the lack of communication does not mean any intervention, it also does not mean any assistance in basic maintenance. Tickoo called the safety problem that involves a broken window on the thirteenth floor, which was forced to fix it from its pocket.

“Even basic repairs and maintenance was my entire problem,” he wrote. “I tried to reach again when a window erupted … and when the cost of the repair was allocated from the rent and sent it the bill on WhatsApp, she refused flat. She called the customer and said,” Bahaya, Aise Nahi Hota Hai. “

Tickoo said he had already heard “rumors” that the owner had harassed the former tenants during the exit process. He expected trouble, he prepared himself mentally – but he was still shocking from the final settlement.

“Painting fee – $ 55,000. Various damage – $ 25,000+”, books. “I asked for a detailed list, and the damage was ridiculous.

Despite repeated requests, Tickoo claims that the owner did not provide actual bills or evidence of the expenses demanded.

He said: “I asked her to submit a list of actual purchases, with bills. All she got was a handwritten paper with random fees.”

In the end, Tickoo received only about 40 % of its original deposit.

The Tickoo Publisher has sparked a wave of responses from users who shared their own experiences across the Indian metro.

One of the users commented, “This is not disgusting. I hope you take some measures on it for this type of greed.”

Another user from LinkedIn added, “He is not only Bangalore. I have been stuck in a similar way by the owner of the property when I was in Chennai. India has no regulations that create a fair platform for tenants, although rental revenues make up 50 % of real estate revenues in metro cities.”

Some joint strategies to mitigate deposit losses: “My advice for everyone who lives in BLR will be to avoid paying the rent at least 3-4 months ago and recover the deposit of the maximum that the owner can be deducted in any case,” said one of the users, who claimed that he did the same after identifying the behavior of the previous property.
