Shillong’s tenants are often students, central government staff and professionals on postings, with families back in Guwahati, Kolkata or Delhi. When the people who need to sign are spread across the country, an online agreement is simply the practical way to do it.
How It Works
Enter the details. Landlord, tenant, locality, rent, deposit and term.
Read the free draft. Add local terms: water supply in the dry months, parking on hill roads, heating in winter.
Pay for e-stamp paper. Meghalaya has issued stamp paper online since 29 August 2023. We arrange it for your agreement.
Sign with Aadhaar OTP. Each party signs on their own phone.
Download. Everyone receives the signed PDF by email.
Registration. Required only for leases longer than one year, under Section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908. An 11-month agreement doesn’t need registration.
Documents. Aadhaar number, address and Aadhaar-linked mobile for landlord, tenant and two witnesses; the property address; rent, deposit and term. Add the landlord’s PAN if the tenant claims HRA on rent above ₹1 lakh a year. Create Now!
Renting in Shillong, Tura and Jowai
Shillong. Students at the university and colleges, officers on central postings, and professionals working for the state. Postings end at short notice, so match the notice period to the transfer cycle and set a firm date for the deposit refund. Furnished flats need an inventory.
Tura. Families and government staff in the Garo Hills. Spell out who pays for water and electricity, and how repairs are handled when the landlord lives elsewhere.
Jowai. Smaller market, mostly families and staff. A simple 11-month agreement with clear notice terms covers most lets.
