The Cap Briefly Explained
The amount of the cap is based on the rent remaining to be paid under the lease for the greater of (i) one year or (ii) 15% of the term of the lease remaining after the earlier of the bankruptcy filing date or the landlord’s recovery of the leased property (by repossession or tenant’s surrender), but not more than 3 years.

Since you have 1 months deposit and this is less than the 1 year limit then doesn't this mean that you can still charge the tenant for the damages < up to the greater of the one years rent amount ?
