Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the eviction order against the National Textile Corporation under the Bombay Rents, Hotel and Lodging House Rates Control Act, 1947, which was applicable prior to its repeal by the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, 1999. The Court clarified that the tenancy had expired by efflux of time and the subsequent tenancy was a holding over situation, thus justifying the Trust's eviction suit. The Court affirmed the lower courts' decisions, emphasizing the validity of the eviction notice issued under the relevant statutes, including the Textile Undertakings (Nationalisation) Act, 1995.
