What is the notice period in an 11 month agreement?

The notice period is whatever your agreement states, usually one to two months from either side, and that written clause overrides everything else.

( SCROLL ↓ )

If your agreement stays silent on notice, the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 falls back to a default of fifteen days for a month to month tenancy. Most 11 month agreements in Bengaluru fix their own notice period rather than relying on this default. Read the notice clause before you sign, and mark the date your notice must go out if you plan to leave at term end.
