Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court analyzed the interpretation of Section 13 and Section 19A of the Rajasthan Premises (Control of Rent and Eviction) Act, 1950, in a case concerning the eviction of a tenant for default in rent payment. The Court held that the tenant's previous deposits were not valid under Section 19A, affirming the lower courts' decisions that deemed the tenant a defaulter. Consequently, the appeal by the tenant's legal representatives was dismissed, upholding the eviction decree.
