Questions

Do tenants need rent receipts?

Salaried tenants claiming house rent allowance usually submit rent receipts to their employer, and employers ask for the landlord’s PAN above a rent threshold. A dated receipt per payment also protects both sides in a deposit dispute.

Should the receipt quote the payment reference?

Yes — the UPI or bank reference ties the receipt to an actual transfer. For cash, write “cash” and the date; a receipt with no reference is the one people argue about later.

Tips

  • The message is a confirmation, not a full rent receipt; tenants claiming HRA may still need the landlord’s signed receipt.
  • Register the SMS body on DLT exactly as shown; a changed word means the operator rejects it.
  • In PropZolo, recording the payment on the rental can send this automatically.

The SMS version must match a template registered on DLT. Utility templates must relate to something the customer asked for.
