Rental increases at ten percent per annum, payable bi-annually fifteen days before each term.

Lessees must obtain licenses from Punjab Food Authority, maintain approved rate lists displayed publicly, comply with all safety and food hygiene standards, and submit to random inspections. HAL reserves the right to terminate leases for violations, including inadequate cleanliness, overcharging, or non-payment, with penalties up to Rs. 5,000 per day. Utility connections (electricity, water, gas) are the lessee's responsibility; HAL may provide sub-meters or non-objection certificates.
