Commercial Property Disputes
A shop tenant defaulting on rent, an office landlord refusing to return a deposit, or partners fighting over a warehouse — commercial property disputes hit cash flow. NyayGo reviews the lease and business records and coordinates an independent enrolled advocate.
Where these disputes are decided
Many disputes over immovable property used exclusively in trade or commerce — such as leases of shops, offices and warehouses — above the specified value fall under the Commercial Courts Act, 2015, which requires pre-institution mediation in most cases where no urgent relief is sought. Smaller or non-commercial matters go to the regular civil courts, and some leases include an arbitration clause.

Common questions
Do commercial lease disputes go to a commercial court?
Disputes over property used exclusively in trade or commerce above the specified value can fall under the Commercial Courts Act, 2015, which usually requires mediation before a suit is filed. The advocate confirms whether your matter qualifies.
My commercial tenant has stopped paying rent. What are my options?
Typically a legal notice first, then a suit for recovery of rent and possession, or arbitration if the lease has an arbitration clause.
Can NyayGo guarantee the result?
No. Outcomes depend on the facts, the evidence and the law, and no one can lawfully guarantee a result. The advocate on your matter will explain the options and the risks.
