The document defines a lease under the Transfer of Property Act (TOPA) as the transfer of the right to enjoy immovable property for a certain time period in exchange for rent. It outlines the key parties in a lease as the lessor who transfers the right and the lessee who receives the right. A lease requires essential elements such as competent parties, an immovable property as the subject matter, a fixed duration, and consideration in the form of premium or rent. A lease to a minor is void as it requires a binding agreement. The document also distinguishes between rent as a periodic payment and premium as a one-time payment made to part with the lessor's interest.
