INDIA PIPE FITTING CO. vs FAKRUDDIN M.A. BAKER AND ANR.

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's power under Article 227 of the Constitution is limited to judicial superintendence and cannot overturn factual conclusions, regardless of their correctness. The Court reiterated that the High Court exceeded its jurisdiction by interfering with the Small Causes Court's findings, which had dismissed the eviction suit based on greater hardship to the tenant. The appeal was allowed, reaffirming the principle that the High Court cannot act as a court of appeal under Article 227.
