Gulab Chand Pukhraj vs R.B. Jinender Raj & Anr

The Supreme Court addressed whether a co-owner of non-residential premises can seek eviction of a tenant from another non-residential premises for bona fide requirements under Section 10(3)(a)(iii) of the A.P. Buildings (Lease, Rent & Eviction) Control Act, 1960. The Court held that the landlords, being co-owners, are entitled to seek eviction despite possessing another non-residential property, thereby overruling the High Court's reliance on prior judgments that restricted such actions. The appeal was allowed, affirming the landlords' right to evict the tenant for their business needs.
