Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to interfere with the Appellate Authority's ruling under the Central Provinces and Berar Letting of Houses and Rent Control Order, 1949, specifically Sections 13(3)(ii), (iii), and (vi). The Court found that the tenant was a habitual defaulter and had sub-let the premises, affirming the landlord's bona fide need for the property. Consequently, the Court granted permission to the landlord to determine the tenancy of the tenant.
