People till now were asked to furnish their identity proofs by landlords while offering their properties for rent but a bizarre incident has come to fore from Bengaluru, where a potential tenant was asked to furnish has Class 12 mark sheet. Furthermore, he was rejected to dwell in owing to his ‘less marks’ in the aforementioned test sheet.

Screenshots of the exchange between the man and a broker named Brijesh have been shared on Twitter by a user, Shubh.

The broker, in order to finalise the agreement sought the man’s LinkedIn profile besides his Class 10 and 12 marksheets and proof of identity.

The man complied with the demand and sent all requisite documents along with a PDF of 150-200 words writeup about himself.

Much to his dismay, he was apprised that his bid to acquire the place got rejected due to his 75 per cent marks in Class 12. He was told that the landlord was expecting at least 90 per cent marks.

Ever since a Twitter post was been shared in this regard with screenshots of the chat, as many as 1.3 million people have viewed it so far. Netizens are in shock over the strange stipulation of the landlord. Many are in splits and few shared memes too.
