Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petition challenging the eviction order based on the defendants' unauthorized construction on the open terrace of the premises without the landlord's consent. The Court upheld the findings of both the trial court and the High Court, which confirmed that while the ground of change of user was not proven, the construction without consent was valid grounds for eviction. The petitioners were granted time until June 30, 2008, to vacate the premises upon filing an undertaking.
