LINGALA KONDALA RAO vs VOOTUKURI NARAYANA RAO

The case involves an appeal against an eviction decree granted under the A.P. Buildings (Lease, Rent & Eviction) Control Act, 1960. The respondent sought eviction of the tenant on the grounds of bonafide requirement for the premises to start his own business. The Court examines whether the respondent, having acquired the property via a registered deed of settlement from his father, established a genuine need for the shop despite other family-owned properties.
