Under the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, where the tenancy of an immovable property is monthly, a notice of which period shall be given in order to terminate the lease?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Under section 106, a monthly lease for a non-agricultural, non-manufacturing purpose is ordinarily terminable by 15 days’ notice in the absence of a contrary contract, local law or usage. Since the 2002 amendment, the notice period runs from receipt rather than needing to end with the tenancy month. This is the ordinary monthly-tenancy notice rule, not an override of a contrary agreed notice period.
