Text as published by India Code for the Government of Maharashtra, as on 7 March 2025; its footnotes record later changes to other Acts it cites, the latest being Mah. 24 of 2012.

A Maharashtra Rent Control (Amendment) Bill, 2025 (L. A. Bill No. LXXXII of 2025) was introduced in 2025; as of October 2026 no official record shows it passed or published as an Act, so it is not reflected in this text.

Where there is any contravention of any conditions or terms subject to which any exemption is granted by or under the provisions of this Act, it shall be competent for the State Government to direct that such exemption shall cease to have effect from such date as may be specified in the order:

Provided that, no such order shall be made, unless the local Authority or the religious or charitable institution or the university referred to in sub-section (2) of section 3 has been given a reasonable opportunity of showing cause as to why such an order should not be issued.
