LAXMIKANT REVCHAND BHOJWANI vs PRATAPSING MOHANSINGH (DEAD ) BY LRS

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision that the appellants-tenants were liable to be evicted under Section 12(3)(a) of the Bombay Rents, Hotel and Lodging House Rates Control Act, 1947 due to their failure to pay rent arrears. The Court noted that the High Court correctly reappreciated the evidence and found that the tenants neglected to pay rent for more than six months, thus justifying the eviction. The judgment of the appellate court was set aside, affirming the trial court's decree in favor of the landlady's heirs.
