Renting is one of the sources of income for landlord and a solution for people who shifted to new location or family who don’t have enough money to owe an own house. Earlier tenants were exploited by landlords and in some case landlords are in trouble by providing their property to tenants who make nuisance or mess in building.
Rental agreement is agreement or mutual understanding between tenant and landlord on the terms and condition for lending a property for rent. In a rental agreement landlord will explain terms and conditions and prepare a written document where tenant and landlord will sign and a copy of the same will be handover to tenant. Making agreement in written is good for future purpose and if any change in condition it will be informed with prior notice of 30 days.

Hi Vasu,
Usually rental agreement is prepared by landlord. You can visit your notary public for making rental agreement. You will have to tell list of things such as number of fans, lights, whether geyser is available, deposit and monthly rent etc.
You can seek your local Realtor service for getting the process done.
Thank you.
