Dena Bank vs Municipal Corpn. Of Delhi

The Supreme Court addressed the validity of the eviction order under the Public Premises (Eviction of Unauthorised Occupants) Act, 1971, specifically Sections 4, 5, and 7. The Court held that the unilateral increase of the licence fee by the Municipal Corporation of Delhi was unjustified and unreasonable, as there was no clause in the original agreement allowing such an increase. The Court upheld the appellate authority's decision to reverse the eviction order, emphasizing the need for a proper hearing before imposing increased charges.
