🏢 Short-Term Rentals & The Law in India:

1️⃣ Ownership or Authorisation Required
Only the legal owner or a duly authorised tenant with landlord consent can list the property.
🏡 No ownership = No hosting.

2️⃣ Local Municipality Laws
Each city has its own set of rules. For example, Mumbai and Bengaluru have zoning regulations for commercial use of residential properties.
🗺️ Always check with your municipal corporation!

3️⃣ Housing Society Rules
Your RWA (Resident Welfare Association) may prohibit short-term rentals.
🛑 Ignore this, and you might end up with more notices than bookings! 📬

4️⃣ Income Tax & GST
Earnings from Airbnb are taxable! And if you cross the ₹20 lakh limit, GST registration becomes mandatory.
💰 Uncle Sam wants his share—well, in our case, Uncle CBDT! 😂

⚖️ License vs Lease?

Airbnb guests are licensees, not tenants.
So, a “license agreement” helps cover your liability, property damage, and ensures guest conduct rules.
📑 Always keep it legal, even if it’s just for one night.

🤣 Funny But Real:
Renting without legal permission is like opening a dhaba in your living room—until someone calls the cops, it’s fun and profitable! 🍛🚔
