Charanjit Lal Mehra & Ors vs Smt.Kamal Saroj Mahajan&Anr.;

The Supreme Court held that under Order XII Rule 6 of the Code of Civil Procedure, a trial court may grant a decree based on admissions made by the parties, but it is not mandatory to do so if the matter requires further evidence. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision to set aside the trial court's order, emphasizing that the relationship of landlord and tenant was established, and the tenancy was not separate for each individual as claimed by the defendants. The Court ruled that the eviction suit could proceed based on the established facts and the provisions of the Delhi Rent Control Act, 1958, particularly Sections 6A and 8.
