Dear All,
My wife and I are encountering this 10 month deposit issue as well and we've stated a blog about it. So that we can gauge public opinion we've sent up a poll. Would appreciate it if some of you would respond to the poll and/or pen down any thoughts you may have in respect of the reasonableness or lack thereof of the whole 10month security deposit issue. Lets discuss this issue and thrash it out.
The aim behind the blog is to make Bangalore a little more progressive in terms of its leasing custom. We can also act as a forum where people, both landlords and tenants, can post their requirements where they are not looking for this crazy 10month deposit.
The blog address is -
