Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed appeals stemming from the Sanchaita Investment Company case, where the firm defaulted on obligations to depositors after misappropriating funds. The Court upheld the appointment of a Commissioner to manage the firm's assets and clarified that the sale of property on an 'as is and where is' basis did not invalidate existing tenant rights. The Court ruled that bona fide tenants could not be evicted without due process, thus allowing the Special Leave Petitions of Paul Bros and others, emphasizing the need for lawful eviction procedures under the relevant legal framework.
