Can a tenant apply for an electricity connection in India? In India, a tenant has the right to apply for an electricity connection. The legal and authorised “occupier” of the premises, including the tenant, cannot be deprived of basic amenities like electricity connection

. 

Here are some key points:

Tenant’s Rights:

  • A tenant has the right to access essential services, including electricity.

  • The utility bills (electricity charges) generated for such services are payable by the tenant.

Landlord’s Limitations:

  • Even if the tenant delays paying utility bills or rent, the landlord cannot sever the electricity connection.

  • Only municipal authorities or the service provider can take such action.

Disputes and Eviction Decrees:

  • If there’s a dispute between the tenant and the landlord (e.g., eviction proceedings), the tenant’s right to an electricity connection remains intact.

  • The tenant should not be left at the mercy of the landlord regarding this basic amenity.

I hope this helps!

Dear Sir, I along with my wife have entered into a sale agreement with a construction company to purchase a flat in Guwahati. In this case, I want my wife to be the sole owner of the flat. I would like to know that if the sale agreement is jointly registered, will I be able to register the sale deed solely in my wife's name? If so, then please let me know. I have purchased 2 Kanal land. The deed was completed and the mutation was completed. I mortgaged the land to the bank and obtained a housing loan. The construction plan got approved from municipal committee verification and was completed by the revenue authority. Mortgage papers were endorsed in the revenue record with information to the bank in writing and attestation of Tehsildar. After liquidation of bank loan, I approached revenue staff, who informed me that instead of 2 Kanal only 0.5 Kanal exists in my name in Khasra Girdawari register. Is it possible? What is the remedy?
