Judgment text excerpt
The case involves an eviction petition filed under the Delhi Rent Control Act, 1958, on the grounds of unauthorized sub-letting. The tenant contended that the introduction of a third party was a partnership arrangement rather than a sub-lease. The Supreme Court was tasked with reviewing the conflicting findings of the Rent Controller, the Appellate Authority, and the High Court regarding whether possession was parted with in favor of another person.
