P. JOHN CHANDY AND COMPANY (P) LTD. vs JOHN P. THOMAS

The Supreme Court upheld the eviction order under Section 11(4)(i) of the Kerala Buildings (Lease and Rent Control) Act, 1965, confirming that the tenant-appellant had sub-let the premises without the landlord's consent. The Court found that the evidence did not establish any positive conferment of rights to sub-let, and the landlord's lack of objection over the years did not imply consent. The judgment of the Kerala High Court was affirmed, resulting in the dismissal of the tenant's appeal.
