PATEL VALMIK HIMATLAL vs PATEL MOHANLAL MULJIBHAI

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of sub-letting under the Bombay Rents, Hotel and Lodging House Rates Control Act, specifically Section 29(2). The Court held that the High Court's revisional jurisdiction is limited and cannot substitute its own findings for those of the lower courts unless there is a clear legal error. The Court reinstated the trial court's decision that the tenant had unlawfully sublet the premises to Patel Transport Company, thereby affirming the landlord's right to eviction.
