Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the interpretation of Section 10(3)(a)(iii) of the Tamil Nadu Buildings (Lease & Rent Control) Act, 1960, regarding the landlord's bonafide personal requirement for eviction. The Court upheld the findings of the lower courts that the landlord's son required the premises for his business, as he had vacated his previous shop and did not own any other non-residential building. The Court concluded that the landlord's claim was valid, affirming the eviction order against the tenant.
