Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court granted leave and set aside the High Court's order dismissing the appellant's eviction petition under the Delhi Rent Control Act, 1958, on the grounds of alleged concealment of material facts. The Court found that the appellant's son's flat allotment occurred after the eviction proceedings began, thus not constituting concealment. The case was remanded to the High Court for fresh disposal on merits without prejudice to either party's case regarding Section 14(1)(e) and Section 25B of the Act.
