Liability of payment of security deposit of electricity co.

Agreement deeds 1238 views 2 replies

In the Sale Agreement of a flat in Mumbai,which my relative has purchased, it is clearly mentioned that all electricity charges are to be borne by the flat seller upto the date of transfer of property.

The electricity charges of the company (Reliance Energy, in this case) include the following:
1)Bill amount of Rs.430 for the last month before the date of transfer
2)"Additional security deposit demanded along with March 2012 bill but still unpaid Rs.1040" which is mentioned on the last month's bill

Sirs, kindly clarify if the flat seller is liable to pay:
1)only the monthly bill amount of Rs.430,or,
2)the monthly bill amount of Rs.430 plus the unpaid security deposit of Rs.1040, that is, total Rs.1470

Seller is liable to pay only electric bill of Rs. 430/-

Since the security deposit is a refundable amount which the buyer will get back. Hence he should pay the security deposit.

 

Thank you, Jignesh Mehtaji! My query is resolved.
