Provide tenant information: Mumbai police advise property owners

Owners who disregard the warning may face penalties under Section 188 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. Falsifying information to the police is a serious offence that can result in legal action against the concerned applicant or landlord if any inconsistency is discovered in the information given.

Tenant detail submission

To input tenant information, Mumbai property owners must go to www.mumbaipolice.gov.in. Choose ‘Tenant Information’ under ‘Report Us’ on the homepage. You will be directed to an online form that must be completed and submitted. The Mumbai police website is available in both English and Marathi.
