Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of eviction under the Goa Rent Control Act, specifically focusing on the grounds of sub-letting as per Section 15(1)(b). The Court upheld the findings of the Additional Rent Controller and the Administrative Tribunal, which established that the tenant had sub-let the premises to Mandovi Tours and Travels, thus justifying the eviction order. The High Court's decision to set aside these orders was reversed, affirming the eviction of the tenant's legal heirs.
