Lease Agreement Drafting

A Commercial Lease Agreement is a legally binding contract executed between a lessor (property owner) and a lessee (tenant) for leasing commercial premises such as offices, retail outlets, warehouses, industrial units, factories, and commercial establishments.

The agreement governs the rights and obligations of both parties, including lease tenure, rent, security deposit, lock-in period, escalation clause, maintenance obligations, fit-out rights, common area maintenance (CAM) charges, renewal, termination, dispute resolution and other commercial terms. Registration of lease deeds is governed by the Registration Act, 1908, the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, the Indian Stamp Act, 1899, applicable State Stamp Acts, and other relevant State laws. A lease exceeding the statutory period prescribed under the Registration Act generally requires compulsory registration.

Our professionals assist in drafting customized commercial lease agreements, calculating applicable stamp duty and registration charges, coordinating registration formalities and ensuring legal compliance to safeguard the interests of both parties.
