Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in setting aside the concurrent findings of fact regarding the eviction of the tenant under Sections 13(1)(e) and 13(1)(k) of the Bombay Rents, Hotel and Lodging House Rates Control Act, 1947. The Court emphasized that the tenant's claim of residing in the premises was contradicted by evidence of sub-letting to another individual. The appeal was allowed, reinstating the eviction order in favor of the landlord.
