Before you sign

3 to 6 months' rent is commonly asked in Mumbai.

The deposit
Shops and offices ask far more than a flat: often 3 to 12 months' rent. Agree in writing what can be cut from it when you leave: putting the space back to a bare shell, unpaid maintenance, the last bills. Those are the usual fights.
Lock-in
12 to 36 months is common. Ask whether it binds the owner too, and what you pay if you leave early.
Rent increases
Usually about 5% a year, or 15% every three years. Get the schedule into the agreement.
Maintenance (CAM)
Malls and complexes charge maintenance per square foot on top of the rent, and often the power backup too. Ask for last year's bills before you sign.
GST
If the owner is GST-registered, 18% GST is added to the rent. If you're registered and the owner isn't, you may have to pay it yourself under reverse charge. Ask your accountant.
Registration
Agreements of 11 months or less are often only notarised; a longer lease is normally registered. Ask who pays the stamp duty.
