Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to set aside the lower courts' determination of provisional rent under Section 13(3) of the Rajasthan Premises (Control of Rent & Eviction) Act, 1950, which was incorrectly set at Rs. 400/- per month. The Court found that the correct provisional rent should be Rs. 200/- per month, as it was the last rent paid by the tenant. The Court emphasized that this provisional rent is interim and subject to adjustment as per Section 13(8) of the Act.
