Grammar
Ensure consistent use of past and present tense to avoid confusion, such as changing 'living here from last ten months' to 'living here for the last ten months'.
Writing Tone
Consider revising the sentence 'I am aware of the fact that I am breaking the norms of the rent deed but I am left with no other option.' to make it slightly more formal, like 'I am aware that this request may not align with the terms of the rental agreement, but...'. This will enhance the formality of your tone.
Task Achievement
Your letter clearly addresses all parts of the task: introducing yourself, requesting to leave early, and explaining the reason why.
Coherence and Cohesion
The letter exhibits clear and logical structure, making it easy to follow the reasons for your request.
