Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the lease in question was for a 'manufacturing purpose' under Section 106 of the Transfer of Property Act, which requires a six-month notice for termination. The Court established that the transformation of wheat into flour involved labor and machinery, satisfying the criteria for manufacturing. Consequently, the Court allowed the appeal, ruling that the month’s notice given by the landlord was insufficient, and the suit for ejectment should have failed.
