Can a registered rent agreement be changed? Here's what the law says

Rental agreements in India are often based on verbal understandings rather than formal paperwork. While such informal arrangements may offer flexibility to both landlords and tenants, they can also give rise to disputes over crucial aspects such as rent, security deposits, maintenance charges and the duration of the tenancy. A written rent agreement helps eliminate these ambiguities by clearly defining the rights and obligations of both parties. But what happens if the terms need to be changed after the agreement has already been signed or even registered?It is possible to modify rent agreements even after registration, provided the changes are made legally with the mutual consent of the landlord and the tenant.
