Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the eviction order under Section 105B of the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, affirming that the appellant, as a principal tenant, was wrongfully evicted on grounds of sub-letting. The Court held that the High Court erred in restoring the eviction order, as the appellant had a valid agreement recognizing their occupancy rights. The Court concluded that the eviction was unwarranted since the appellant was not an unauthorized occupant under the statutory provisions cited.
