Security deposit depends on the type of apartments you are choosing. In case of service apartments for shorter period the deposits are minimal. In case of furnished and rental apartments for long term, new tenant is required to pay the owner a deposit at the time of signing of the lease contract to cover any non payment of rent, outstanding utilities payments, cleaning fees and any damages to the property beyond normal wear and tear. The tenant can claim back this money at the end of the contract. In many cases, upon signing the contract the new tenant usually pays two to three months’ security deposit. This deposit can also go up to a maximum of 6 months, depending on individual owners. This applies to both Indian and Expats looking to rent a property.
Maintenance fee is a fee charged to common occupants in a building for common services. The fee is only applicable in case of long term accommodations. This is usually applicable to apartment buildings that have a Concierge, Rubbish Rooms, Swimming Pools or Gardens, Security, Lift Maintenance etc. It is common for apartment buildings that have shared areas and is not negotiable.
In India this is not compulsory when moving into an apartment. But is recommended as it provides protection against events beyond your control that happen in your apartment .This is only advisable in case you are going for long term accommodations.
In India, when you move out of the apartment, normally you are not charged any cleaning fee. Some property owners insist on it and one has to go by what has been settled at the time of signing of the contract. If you are in India, normal wear and tear is borne by the property owner, but you will be liable for any damage. There is no regulation governing the same but the owner can only charge directly applicable and reasonable damage. The following are examples of what damage you will be responsible to pay for:
- Holes and hooks in the wall for pictures / drawings
- Painting a wall in a different color
- Scratches on the floor with heavy furniture
- Damage to fitting and furniture
Even if the above are by accident, you will be charged for repair upon move-out.
One is legally bound and the property owner cannot unreasonably over charge for damages and cleaning (if applicable). The damages and cleaning fee will be deducted from the deposit if any, one has to pay for damages that have happened and are not caused by “wear n tear”. Normally the terms of the lease mentions penalties in the form of interest and continuing to hold possession in case of delay in payments of security deposits.
