2) landlord cannot demand transfer charges 

3) legal heirs are deemed tenants 

4) landlord cannot dictate what business you carry on 

If the landlord is insisting you to furnish the details of the legal heirs of your deceased grandfather in the form of an indemnity bond, you may prepare a notarised affidavit and furnish the details of ther legal heirs of your grandfather along with the death certificate copy.

There is no necessity to furnish the details in an indemnity bond.

If the agreement is transferred to the legal heirs, then you cannot change the contents of the original agreement, however if the landlord agrees to enter into a fresh agreement then you can request him to allow you to mention about the new business that you are doing now or intending to carry out.

The demand for transfer fee and its quantum  by the landlord cannot be predicted, it depends on the discretion of the landlord.

There is no law governing this situation.

If the landlord is not cooperating and giving pressure to vacate, then you refuse to vacate and obtain a stay order against the landlord based on the long time possession and enjoyment.

Yes.  You can do the both. No it's no Harraaasment

The landlord can transfer the rent receipt to any one legal heir of the deceased tenant 

If he is willing to issue a joint rent receipt in favor of more than one legal heir then it's fine

You can submit the indemnity the bond as requested by landlord. You will have to approach a good competent lawyer to prepare that

Generally for transfer due to inheritance on death of original tenant, the landlords charge some lump sum fee but certainly cannot charge the transfer fee as applicable for a new transfer

The premises have been given to your GF for a particular purpose

Q. The landlord argues that in the rent agreement of my grandfather, it was agreed to do only one business and now as well no other business can be done at this unit. Suppose a new amended agreement is made and the landlord directs that only previous business should be continued or face legal actions than how this situation can be dealt? Is the previous agreement gets nullified in such a situation? Can we do other legal business, or it would be difficult to change the initial business. By not letting to do any change of business is it harassment from the landlord?

A. He is landlord of the property and therefore whatever business you want to undergo has to be under his consensus and permission. You may negotiate on rent. So far as undertaking business is concerned it cannot be without or above his consent or permission. he has authority to deny or reject. However once agreement is executed describing business that you want to undergo in his owned premises, he cannot deny for the same.

2. Charges for registration And stamp duty will be not be much. 

3. After execution of fresh agreement you can start other business also from this premises without prior permission from landlord but previous business must continue.

If the BMC is proceeding to demolish the other shop without waiting for the judgment, then a suit for injunction is to be filed immediately agaisnt the BMC citing the emergency situation  and seek n emergency order to stop the authorities from proceeding with the proposed plan to demolish the shop.

You can seek stay of demolition 

2) mere being in possession does not confer title to property 

3) you can claim adverse possession if you are in open , hostile , uninterrupted possession for over 12 years 

Patra means eligible and apatra means non eligible 

The eligible occupant would get the new premises in place of old shop

Even if the decision on the second shop is pending, the BMC will have to allot new premises to the person who is adjudicated by the court to be entitled to the apatra shop 

The case would not stop just because the premises are demolished as the right to claim in those premises would continue
