Ganesh Sekar, 11 Sep: “Attaching August's meter reading so the deposit maths is clean.”

Priya Sekarto you and Appa8:02 am

Final draft attached. Clause 7 is the one we argued about — I've cut the two-month notice down to one, and the rent stays at ₹32,000 until March 2027.

Varun quoted ₹18,400 for the two bedrooms and the hall, primer included. He can start on the 26th if the flat is empty that week.

Youto Priya, GaneshYesterday 7:40 pm

The 26th works. I'll be in Kodaikanal from the 24th, so the keys can sit with the watchman.

Can we keep the water tank cleaning on the same week and be done with it?
