CARONA LTD. vs M/S. PARVATHY SWAMINATHAN & SONS

The Supreme Court upheld the eviction decree against Carona Ltd. under the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, 1999, confirming that the tenant's non-payment of rent justified the landlord's action. The Court rejected the tenant's argument regarding the maintainability of the suit and the pending constitutional validity of the Rent Act, stating that the lower courts acted within their jurisdiction. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the decisions of the Small Causes Court and the High Court.
