Dwarkaprasad vs Niranjan And Another

The Supreme Court held that under the provisions of the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, the landlord's bona fide requirement for the entire premises must be established for eviction. The Court found that the High Court erred in limiting the eviction to only 50% of the premises, as the landlord's need for the entire property for his family business was genuine and necessary. The Court reversed the High Court's decision and granted eviction for the entire suit premises, emphasizing the importance of the landlord's bona fide need under the Act.
