Judgment text excerpt
The court examined the impact of the Karnataka Rent Control Act, 1999 (New Act) on pending eviction proceedings initiated under the 1961 Act (Old Act). The primary issue was whether premises used for non-residential purposes exceeding 14 square meters, which are excluded from the New Act's application, would result in the abatement of existing eviction orders. The court analyzed the transition from the Old Act to the New Act regarding the tenancy of the appellants.
