MODEL RENT CONTROL ACT

 Recently Union Government has cleared much-needed legislation on rented property.

Until now each and every government in the state have enacted its own laws. Mostly a replica of the Bombay rent control act 1948.

In the present law, the law is favorour of tenants.

The property owner is a capitalist, and he deserves to be punished for holding physical wealth. It's the main motive behind the law.

The enforcement of the law is very poor. As it is treated as a normal civil suit. In our country civil suit is considered and treated on a very nonpriority basis.

The suit takes time in tens of years. The cost of arbitration is very high and if anybody wants to register the rent agreement is costly. It is not feasible.

All in all the law is not in favor of society. It is favorable to those who want to mischievous behavior.

Capping on rent enhancement and collection of rent is also cumbersome.

Now new model act is cleared. It is solving the major issue of registration of contract or rent agreement.

The time for contract registration and separate authority for it is very good.

The tribunal for arbitration with 60 days time limit to conclude the process is a progressive step.

The upper limit of yearly enhancement of rent is fair enough which takes care of both sides.

The whole process is time-bound.Which means precious resources are conserved.

Now, we have gone through the fate two-act which is state subject as per our Constitution

1. Shop Act

2. Rera Act

The state governments have added or deleted provisions as per their whim and fancy in Rera Act. The time to enact the law was more than desired.

The Shop Act still has to see the light of day.

It is changed as per the present situation not as per the model act.

In both, the rent control act as well as shop act is harassment of general public in general and gives law enforcement agencies power to twist arms.

Let's hope both laws will see the day of light very soon with original spirit.

Everyone has done his or her financial planning priors to this tragedy which is good in that scenario. But a situation like this has forced everyone to revisit his or her financial planning. We Indians have a mindset to follow the same path which we saw others following. Now one or two income source is not going to work. As to get old days required will be at least 2 to 3 years.

 Best wishes for "DIWALI". It is the first Diwali post-pandemic that is free from all issues. The annual sales which are based on the present sales figures festival season and projections for next year are dependent on it. The season has other reasons to make things exciting the report in various forums during the same period is also in the public domain. The one of most controversial is the hunger index on which lots of things have been said either in support or opposed to it. Another one is about the pensioner index which is an important one. We are going to see what the hunger index says in the context of our country. The report is based on the gallop report which is known for its business-related research papers. The comprehensive analysis is done by Dr. Vivek Debroy, the chairman of PM EAC, which gives details of the report rejection.

 One small piece of news was printed on daily that the gender ratio of our country has changed from more male to more female per thousand. Means 1000:1020, i.e. for every one thousand males there is one thousand and twenty female. It is a very important development in independent India. The latest census which is underway showed the benefit of the campaign which was run by the government and the society together to save the girl child. But the malnutrition and other health issues are still a major cause of concern. Recently we were part of one discussion, namely the financial literacy amongst the female in our country. Generally, it is seen that women are not part of decisions or rather discussions of financial matters. The average financial literacy of women is less than that of means they do not take part in the discussion or they are not interested in the altogether. Our own experience shows the above-said statement is true. As the campaign which the government ran with the help of
