Why is a rent agreement usually for 11 months?
Under the Registration Act, 1908, a lease of 12 months or more must be registered. By keeping the term to 11 months, the agreement stays under one year, so it does not need mandatory registration — a stamped and notarised agreement is enough. This saves time and the registration cost, which is why the 11-month rent agreement is the standard choice for most tenancies in Delhi. If that is what you need, you can order your rent agreement online now — it is free to order and you pay only after it is ready.

e-Stamped vs Notarised vs Registered — what is the difference?
These are three different things, and people often confuse them:
- e-Stamped — the stamp duty is paid on an e-stamp paper. Every valid agreement should be stamped.
- Notarised — a notary public attests the signatures and the date. Good enough for most short (under-12-month) tenancies and common purposes like address proof.
- Registered — the document is recorded with the sub-registrar and becomes public record. Mandatory for 12+ months and the strongest evidence in a dispute.
In short: a notarised 11-month agreement works for most people; for long terms or maximum legal protection, get it registered. A notarised deed is not a replacement for a registered one. Not sure which you need? Tell us and we set the right one — or simply order online now, free, pay after work.

Clauses every rent agreement in Delhi should include
A weak, one-page agreement causes most tenant-landlord disputes. A properly drafted rent agreement protects both sides and holds up if things go wrong. The clauses that matter most are:
- Rent, due date and mode of payment — the amount, the day of every month it is due, and how it is paid.
- Security deposit and its refund — how much, and the timeline and conditions for return when the tenant leaves.
- Lock-in period and notice period — the minimum stay and how many days' notice either side must give.
- Annual rent increase — the fixed percentage (commonly 5-10%) so there is no argument at renewal.
- Maintenance and repairs — who pays society charges, minor repairs and major structural repairs.
- Utility bills — electricity, water, gas, internet and who clears them.
- Permitted use and subletting — residential or commercial use, and whether subletting is allowed.
- Termination and eviction grounds — clear reasons and process to end the tenancy.
We build all of these into your agreement as standard — you do not have to know the legal wording. Place your order — free and we draft it correctly the first time.
Tenant police verification in Delhi
Delhi Police require landlords to get tenant police verification done for every new tenant — it is both a safety step and a legal requirement, and a rent agreement alone is not a substitute. Verification can be filed online through the Delhi Police tenant-verification portal or at the local police station, with the tenant's ID, photo and the signed rent agreement. We can prepare the agreement and guide you through the verification so your tenancy is fully in order. Order online now — free, pay after work.
What a rent agreement is used for
A stamped, notarised rent agreement is one of the most widely accepted documents in daily life. People order one for:
- Address proof for Aadhaar update, passport, driving licence and voter ID.
- HRA (House Rent Allowance) claims — employers ask for a valid agreement and rent receipts.
- Gas connection, electricity and water in the tenant's name.
- Bank KYC, account opening and loans.
- GST / shop registration at a rented business address.
- School admission and other local formalities.
Whatever your reason, tell us and we set the agreement up so it is accepted where you need it. Place Order — Free.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Using an unstamped or under-stamped agreement — it can be rejected and has weak legal value.
- Leaving the security deposit refund terms vague — the biggest cause of disputes.
- Not registering a 12-month-or-longer lease when the law requires it.
- Skipping police verification of the tenant.
- Copying a random online template that misses Delhi-specific clauses.
