Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the validity of a notice served under Section 14(1)(a) of the Delhi Rent Control Act, which allows a landlord to seek eviction if the tenant fails to pay rent after receiving a notice of demand. The Court held that the notice issued by the landlady was valid, as the tenant had defaulted in payment and had previously availed the benefit under Section 14(2) of the Act. Consequently, the appeal was allowed, affirming the eviction order against the tenant.
