Document background
A Land License Agreement is essential when temporary rights to use land are needed without transferring possession or creating tenancy rights. This document is commonly used in India for various purposes such as temporary installations, events, agricultural activities, or commercial operations. It differs from a lease agreement as it creates a mere privilege to use the property rather than an interest in the property. The agreement must comply with Indian contract law, state-specific property regulations, and relevant municipal codes. It typically includes detailed terms about the permitted use, duration, fee structure, maintenance obligations, and termination rights. This type of agreement is particularly useful for businesses seeking flexible land use arrangements without long-term commitments or when permanent possession is not required.
