PARVINDER SINGH vs RENU GAUTAM .

The Supreme Court addressed the eviction proceedings under the H.P. Urban Rent Control Act, 1987, where the landlord sought eviction on grounds of subletting and default in rent payment. The Court held that the grounds for eviction based on default in rent were rightly dismissed by lower courts. However, regarding subletting, the Court distinguished the precedent set in A.S. Sulochana Vs. C. Dharmalingam, emphasizing that the tenant's guilt must be established, not that of their predecessor. The appeal was dismissed, upholding the lower courts' decisions.
