Whether you are a landlord seeking eviction on grounds of reasonable requirement or a tenant defending your rights, the success of your case hinges on one critical document: the affidavit.
This comprehensive 2025 guide breaks down the entire process, providing a detailed look at the legal formats for petitions, the procedure for filing interlocutory applications, and the crucial link between your claims and documentary evidence.
From drafting a flawless eviction affidavit to understanding the tenant’s right to deposit rent under Section 7, this resource offers practical checklists, strategic advice, and annotated sample templates to empower both property owners and tenants in West Bengal.
A Legal and Procedural Guide to Drafting Affidavits under the Indian Rent Control Act
A West Bengal Case Study | Updated till October 2025
On This Page
Part I: The Legal and Procedural Context
1.1: The Jurisprudential Foundation of Rent Control in India
The legal framework for landlord-tenant relationships in India has evolved significantly. Initially designed to protect tenants from arbitrary evictions and unfair rents after the World Wars and Partition, these laws have been recalibrated to balance the rights of both landlords and tenants. The West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act, 1997, represents this modern approach, aiming for a more equitable system.
Evolution of Rent Control in West Bengal
1942
Bengal House Rent Control Order enacted to address wartime housing shortages.
1950 & 1956
Acts passed, strengthening tenant protections significantly.
1997
The West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act is passed, aiming for a more balanced framework.
2001
The WBPT Act, 1997 comes into force, introducing stricter procedures and limiting inheritance of tenancy.
1.2: The Role of the Affidavit in Judicial Proceedings
An affidavit is a sworn, written statement of facts used as evidence in court. It's the primary way to present factual information to support a legal claim. Unlike a pleading, which outlines the case, an affidavit provides the proof for the claims made.
Pleading
(e.g., Plaint, Application)
Sets out a party's formal claims or defenses. It tells the court **WHAT** you are arguing.
Affidavit
(Sworn Evidence)
Provides the factual evidence to prove the allegations made in the pleading. It shows the court **WHY** your argument is true.
1.3: Key Proceedings Requiring Affidavits
Under the WBPT Act, 1997, affidavits are essential in several key proceedings. Use the filters below to explore them.
Eviction Proceedings (Sec 6)
Landlord files to evict a tenant on specific grounds, supported by an affidavit detailing the facts.
Tenant's Defense & Rent Deposit (Sec 7)
Tenant files to defend an eviction suit, contingent on depositing rent. The affidavit details any dispute.
Fixation of Fair Rent (Sec 17)
Either party applies to the Controller to determine the fair rent, with an affidavit stating the case facts.
Repairs and Maintenance (Sec 35)
Tenant applies for an order for repairs when the landlord neglects them, affidavit details the required work.
Restoration of Essential Services
Tenant files an urgent application if the landlord cuts off services like water or electricity.
Appeals and Interlocutory Applications
An aggrieved party files for a stay or other interim relief during an appeal, affidavit explains the grounds.
Hierarchy of Adjudicating Bodies in West Bengal
Rent Controller
First instance for applications like fixation of fair rent.
Civil Court
(e.g., Small Causes Court in Kolkata, Civil Judge elsewhere) for eviction suits.
High Court at Calcutta
Hears appeals and revisions from the lower courts and tribunals.
Part II: The Anatomy of a Legally Compliant Affidavit
Deconstructing the Affidavit: Key Components
Heading & Cause Title
Identifies the court, case number, and parties involved.
Deponent's Introduction
The person swearing the affidavit identifies themselves under oath.
Body of Averments
The core numbered paragraphs containing the factual statements.
Verification Clause
Deponent's declaration that the contents are true to their knowledge and belief.
Attestation
Signature and seal by a Notary Public or Oath Commissioner.
Part III: The Lifecycle of a Contested Eviction Suit
Understanding the entire process helps in appreciating the role of each affidavit. An eviction suit is a marathon, not a sprint.
1. Legal Notice
Landlord sends a formal notice to the tenant, stating the grounds for eviction and providing a deadline to vacate.
2. Filing of Suit (Plaint)
If the tenant doesn't comply, the landlord files a plaint (the lawsuit document) in the appropriate court.
3. Tenant's Response
Tenant receives summons, files an application to deposit rent (Sec 7), and submits a Written Statement in defense.
4. Interlocutory Stage
A lengthy phase where both parties may file various applications (I.A.s) for interim orders, each supported by an affidavit.
5. Evidence Stage
Parties submit their evidence, primarily through affidavits (Examination-in-Chief), and are then cross-examined in court.
6. Final Arguments & Judgment
Lawyers for both sides present their final arguments. The judge then delivers the final verdict.
7. Appeal Process
The losing party has the right to appeal the decision to a higher court, starting a new phase of litigation.
Part IV: Practical Drafting for Specific Proceedings
Grounds for Eviction under WBPT Act, 1997 (Sec 6)
A landlord must prove one or more specific grounds to evict a tenant. The chart below shows some key grounds.
Affidavit Averments: A Comparative Analysis
| Proceeding Type | Landlord's Essential Averments | Tenant's Essential Averments |
|---|---|---|
| Eviction on Default | Dates of tenancy, rent amount, specific months of default, details of demand notices. | Proof of payment (receipts), details of landlord's refusal to accept rent, copies of money orders. |
| Eviction on Reasonable Requirement | Details of landlord's family/business needs, lack of other suitable accommodation. | Details of landlord's other properties, evidence that the need is not bona fide. |
| Fixation of Fair Rent | Date of last rent fixation, age of property, justification for increase based on statutory formula. | Dilapidated condition of property, comparable rents in the locality, lack of amenities. |
| Application for Rent Deposit | Not Applicable | Date of service of summons, statement of admitted rent, grounds for any dispute over the amount. |
Part V: Beyond the Main Pleadings: Interlocutory Applications
Litigation isn't just about the main eviction suit; it involves numerous mini-proceedings called Interlocutory Applications (I.A.s). These are formal requests made to the court for interim orders while the main case is pending. Each I.A. must be supported by a separate affidavit.
Application for Condonation of Delay
Context: The law prescribes strict deadlines. If you miss a deadline, for instance, to file crucial documents, you must ask the court to forgive the delay.
Essential Averments in the Affidavit:
- State the reason for the delay clearly and honestly (e.g., illness, document unavailability).
- Emphasize that the delay was unintentional and not due to negligence.
- Explain why the documents are "material for a just decision" of the case.
- Conclude by praying that the court condone the delay in the "ends of justice."
Application to Prohibit Defense (Strike Out)
Context: A powerful tool for landlords. If a tenant fails to comply with the court's order to deposit rent (under Sec 7), the landlord can file an I.A. to have the tenant's defense struck out.
Essential Averments in the Affidavit:
- Reference the specific date of the court's order directing the tenant to deposit rent.
- Clearly state the months for which the tenant has defaulted in making the deposit.
- Argue that this non-compliance is willful and violates the court's mandate.
- Pray for an order prohibiting the respondent from contesting the petition, leading to a swifter eviction.
Application for Temporary Injunction
Context: Used to prevent a party from taking a specific action during the suit, for example, to stop a tenant from making illegal structural alterations to the property.
Essential Averments in the Affidavit:
- Describe the wrongful act being committed or threatened by the other party.
- Explain that this act will cause irreparable harm or injury if not stopped.
- State that the "balance of convenience" is in your favor (i.e., you will suffer more if the injunction is not granted).
Application for Amendment of Pleadings
Context: To correct errors or add new information that has come to light after the initial plaint or written statement has been filed.
Essential Averments in the Affidavit:
- Clearly state the proposed amendment.
- Explain why the amendment is necessary for determining the "real questions in controversy."
- Provide a valid reason for not including this information in the original pleading (e.g., it was a subsequent event).
Part VI: Procedural Formalities and Strategic Considerations
Common Drafting Errors and How to Avoid Them
DON'T: Be Vague
Avoid general statements like "the tenant is a nuisance."
DO: Be Specific
Provide dates, times, and specific actions. "On May 15, 2025, the tenant played loud music until 2:00 AM."
DON'T: Include Legal Arguments
An affidavit is for facts only. Avoid saying "This violates Section 6..."
DO: State the Facts
Describe the event: "The tenant disposes of garbage in the common staircase." Let the advocate make the legal argument.
DON'T: Use Improper Verification
A defective verification clause can invalidate the affidavit. Avoid blanket statements if some facts are based on information.
DO: Verify Correctly
Clearly distinguish what is from personal knowledge and what is from information, and state the source of the information.
Linking Allegations to Evidence: A Practical Checklist
Your affidavit makes a claim; your documents prove it. Here’s how to connect your statements to tangible proof, inspired by real case requirements.
Claim: "I need the premises for my son's professional practice."
Required Documents:
- Professional Qualification: A copy of the son's D-Pharma Certificate or other professional degree.
- Registration to Practice: The son's Pharmacist Registration Certificate or equivalent license.
- Proof of Relationship: Birth certificate or, as in some cases, an Adoption Deed to establish the son's legal status in the family.
- Financial Capacity: Bank statements to show readiness to start the business.
Claim: "The tenant has not paid rent for six months."
Required Documents:
- Rent Receipt Book/Counterfoils: To show the last month for which rent was paid and accepted.
- Copy of Legal Notice: The notice demanding payment of arrears.
- Postal Receipts: Proof that the notice was sent (Registered Post A/D).
- Landlord's Bank Statement: To show no rent was credited during the default period.
Part VII: Strategic Recommendations
For Landlords
- Meticulous Record-Keeping: Maintain a complete file of agreements, rent receipts, and all correspondence. This is your primary arsenal.
- The Legal Notice is Key: Ensure your legal notice is flawlessly drafted, correctly addressed, and sent via registered post. A defective notice can be a fatal flaw in your case.
- Plead All Available Grounds: It is often wise to plead multiple grounds for eviction (e.g., both default and reasonable requirement) if the facts support them. This provides alternative paths to success.
- Document Breaches Contemporaneously: Create a record of any issues like property damage or nuisance *as they happen*. Dated photos, police complaints (for serious issues), and written statements from neighbors are invaluable.
For Tenants
- Never Stop Depositing Rent: This cannot be overstated. Once an eviction suit is filed, immediately file your Section 7 application and deposit the admitted rent. Continue depositing rent every month without fail. This is your shield.
- Preserve Proof of Payment: Always get receipts. If the landlord refuses rent, send it via money order immediately and keep the proof. This single action can defeat a claim of default.
- Scrutinize the Landlord's Pleadings: Look for inconsistencies. Does the landlord's claim of "no other property" hold up? Is the stated "need" genuine or a pretext? Your affidavit should systematically counter their claims.
- Provide Factual Rebuttals: Address each of the landlord's allegations in your affidavit with specific facts and supporting evidence. Vague denials are ineffective.
Part VIII: Core Legal Formats for Petitions and Affidavits
The provided legal document contains specific formats for Interlocutory Applications (I.A.s). Below is a breakdown of this structure, which is fundamental for any interim request made to the court during a rent control case.
1. The Petition (The Formal Request)
This is the cover page of your application. It formally tells the court what you are asking for and under which law you are making the request. It is always supported by an affidavit.
IN THE COURT OF THE [Name of Court, e.g., CIVIL JUDGE (JR. DIV.) AT SEALDAH]

// Annotation: The prayer must be precise, e.g., "...condone the delay in filing documents in the ends of justice." or "...pass an order prohibiting the respondent from contesting the petition."
Advocate for Petitioner
2. The Supporting Affidavit (The Factual Foundation)
This is the sworn statement that contains all the facts justifying the request made in the petition. Each claim in the petition must be backed by a statement in the affidavit.

// Example for striking out defense: "That this Hon'ble court directed the Respondent to deposit rent vide order dated [Date]. The Respondent has failed to deposit rent for the months of [List Months]."
(3) I, therefore, pray that the Hon’ble Court may be pleased to [Repeat the prayer from the petition].

VERIFICATION

Advocate/Notary/Oath Commissioner
// Annotation: Attestation by a qualified authority.
Part IX: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Immediately send the rent via money order to the landlord's last known address. Keep the money order receipt as it is crucial evidence. If the landlord still refuses, you should file an application with the Rent Controller to deposit the rent in court. This protects you from being declared a defaulter.
The duration can vary significantly based on the complexity of the case, the court's workload, and the number of interlocutory applications filed. Contested eviction suits can take several years, often between 3 to 7 years or even longer, to be resolved at the trial court level, with further time for appeals.
No. Under the WBPT Act, 1997, rent can only be increased according to the procedure laid out in the Act. If a tenancy agreement specifies an increase, it must be fair and not unconscionable. Otherwise, a landlord must apply to the Rent Controller for a fixation of fair rent. Any arbitrary increase is not legally enforceable.
This is the modern procedure for submitting a witness's main testimony. Instead of the witness reciting all the facts orally in court, their entire statement is submitted as a formal affidavit. This becomes their primary evidence. The witness then only needs to enter the witness box to confirm the affidavit's contents and face cross-examination from the opposing lawyer, saving significant court time.
Part X: Conclusion
Navigating the complexities of the West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act requires more than just an understanding of the law; it demands precision in procedure and strategy in execution. The affidavit stands at the very heart of this process. It is not merely a formality but the foundational block of evidence upon which cases are built and decided.
For landlords, a meticulously drafted affidavit, supported by irrefutable documentary evidence, is the key to successfully establishing grounds for eviction. For tenants, a timely and factually accurate affidavit, particularly under Section 7, serves as an indispensable shield against wrongful eviction.
Ultimately, success in rent control litigation hinges on the ability to translate a factual situation into a compelling, legally compliant narrative. Every paragraph in an affidavit, every attached document, and every procedural step taken contributes to the final outcome. This guide aims to empower both landlords and tenants to approach this challenging legal landscape with greater clarity, preparedness, and a deeper appreciation for the critical role of the sworn affidavit.
