Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the applicability of Section 32F of the Bombay Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1948, determining that a tenant's right to purchase land arises when the landlord, who is a minor or under disability, attains majority or ceases to be disabled. The Court held that the tenant's notice to purchase was valid as it was issued within the stipulated time frame after the landlord's disability ended. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision that the tenant was entitled to purchase the land.
