Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision under Section 15(5) of the Rent Control Act, affirming that the High Court has the jurisdiction to reverse findings of fact if they are found to be improper or illegal. The Court noted that the tenant had taken the lease in his own name and was the sole proprietor of M/s. Navneet Prakashan, thus confirming that the premises were let for residential purposes. The appeal by the tenant was dismissed, reinforcing the High Court's ruling on bona fide requirement for eviction.
