Dear (Name),

I received your letter last week in which you had suggested an increase in rent amount. I appreciate that you have brought the fact to our notice. We are comfortably settled in your house and over a period of time, have come to enjoy warm relations with you. I understand your constraints and the toll that rising prices have taken on lives. In view of your request, I had applied for an increase in my House Rent Allowance from my office which has been duly accepted. Hence I am in a position to pay you the increased rent of Rs.____________ (Amount) p.m. with effect from ____________ (Date). I hope you will draft a fresh rent agreement and take due care that I get the rent receipts in accordance.

ADVERTISEMENTS:

With best wishes

Yours faithfully,
(Your Name)
