Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of eviction under the Haryana Urban (Control of Rent and Eviction) Act, 1973, specifically examining Section 13 which pertains to bonafide requirement for eviction. The Court held that a landlord can seek eviction of a tenant from non-residential premises if the landlord demonstrates a genuine need for the premises for business purposes, affirming the decisions of the Rent Controller and the Appellate Authority. The appeal by the tenant was dismissed, upholding the eviction order based on the landlord's bonafide requirement.
