24 March 2026 Changing the tenant name from mother to son in Mumbai's pagdi system involves transferring tenancy rights under the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, 1999, primarily through inheritance as the son is a legal heir. This process updates the rent receipt to formalize the son's tenancy, especially if the mother has passed away or relinquished rights.

24 March 2026 Key Steps
Obtain a No Objection Certificate (NOC) or affidavits from all other legal heirs of the mother (e.g., siblings), confirming they relinquish tenancy rights to the son; registered release deeds may be needed if disputes arise.

Gather supporting documents: mother's death certificate (if applicable), son's proof of residency with mother at time of death, succession certificate or legal heir certificate from court, past rent receipts, and utility bills showing continuous occupancy.

Approach the landlord with a written request to issue a new rent receipt in the son's name; pay rent via traceable methods like cheque during this period.

24 March 2026 Landlords often demand fees even for blood relative transfers, but legally, no charges apply for inheritance among family members under pagdi rules. Negotiate amicably; if refused, file a suit in the Small Causes Court (Mumbai) under Section 7(15)(d) of the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, 1999, for a declaration of tenancy transfer—no payment to landlord is required.

24 March 2026 Failure to update can complicate redevelopment claims or future disputes, as informal occupancy may not suffice without proof. Consult a local advocate specializing in rent control for personalized filing, as courts prioritize heirs residing with the deceased tenant.
