C. CHANDRAMOHAN vs SENGOTTAIYAN (DEAD) BY LRS.&ORS

The Supreme Court upheld the eviction of tenants under Sections 10(2) and 14(1)(b) of the Tamil Nadu Buildings (Lease & Rent Control) Act, 1960, confirming that the landlord proved wilful default in rent payment, the need for demolition and reconstruction, and denial of title. The Court found that the tenants' claims regarding the rental amounts were incorrect and that the landlord had established his title and need for the premises. Consequently, the appeals were dismissed, affirming the eviction orders issued by the Rent Controller.
