FGP LTD. vs SALEH HOOSEINI DOCTOR

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's revision application, confirming that the appellant, a public limited company with a paid-up share capital exceeding Rs.1 crore, is not entitled to protection under the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, 1999. The Court ruled that the plaintiffs, as representatives of the original owner, have the right to file a suit for possession under the Bombay Rent Act, 1947, despite the appellant's claims regarding the original owner's marital status and the implications of the Special Marriage Act. The Court emphasized that the legal standing of the plaintiffs was valid, leading to the dismissal of the appellant's appeal.
