Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal of the tenant, holding that the execution of the decree was not barred by limitation despite the tenant's claim under Sub-section (4) of Section 4 of the Tamil Nadu City Tenants Protection Act. The Court noted that the tenant did not raise the Act's provisions in the original suit and that the subsequent plea was rejected by the High Court. The Court established that the tenant cannot benefit from the Act in this context, affirming the lower court's decision.
