Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court's interference with the concurrent findings of fact by the trial and appellate Courts was unjustified, as it did not demonstrate any perverse conclusions regarding the tenant's default in rent payment and unauthorized subletting under Section 25 of the Provincial Small Cause Courts Act, 1887. The Court emphasized that the findings of the trial Court, which confirmed that Pannalal was the tenant and had sublet the premises to Bullu without consent, were based on a thorough evaluation of evidence. Consequently, the appeal was allowed, the High Court's order was set aside, and the writ petition was dismissed, granting the respondents time to vacate the premises.
