In the year 2013, the Union Urban Development Minister Kamal Nath had introduced the Delhi Rent (Repeal) Bill, 2013, seeking to repeal the Delhi Rent Act, 1995. Interestingly, the Act in question was not even notified while attempts were being made to repeal it. Briefly, in 1997, the bill was introduced in this Act, which was intended to produce severe rules for the rental market. However, with the 11th Lok sabha getting dissolved, these amendments could not be incorporated. The 2013 Bill is still pending in the Rajya Sabha. This means that the old rules of the  Delhi Rent Control Act 1958 are still appropriate to the capital. The existing government produced a draft model act 2015. But legal support is necessary. Due to this, the rules of 1958 are in survival so far.

• Under this Act, the resident can rent up to 15th of every month and in return and could demand a return receipt for the same.
• In order to the value of money, the main focus of this act is on the term “standard”. On the other side, due to this law, good rent was not available in the individual commercial premises of central areas of Delhi.
• Under this law, if the holder is paying rent monthly, the landlord should not take him out of the house. Due to the requirements of this law, the holder who makes payment in the name of the landlord in Delhi cannot get them out of the house.
• The areas covered under this act include the limits of municipal corporations of the city, the New Delhi Municipal Committee, and the Delhi Cantonment Board.
• According to the Act, Provisions of the law make it difficult for landlords to object to leasing the rented premises.
