PUWADA VENKATESWARA RAO vs CHIDAMANA VENKATA RAMANA

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision that compliance with Section 106 of the Transfer of Property Act is unnecessary in eviction proceedings under the Andhra Pradesh Building (Lease, Rent and Eviction) Control Act, 1960, as the Act provides a self-contained procedure. The Court distinguished the case from Mangilal v. Sugan Chand Rathi, emphasizing that the principles applicable there do not apply to the current context. The Court also noted that denial of receipt of notice does not always require the production of the postman, as the party's own admissions may suffice to establish receipt.
