Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's order regarding the interim relief in a dispute under the Maharashtra Ownership of Flats Act, 1963. The Court confirmed that the City Civil Court lacked pecuniary jurisdiction to hear the suit and directed that the license fee from the built-up area be deposited with the Prothonotary and Senior Master. The ruling emphasized the need for maintaining the status quo regarding the property and ensuring that no third-party interests were created during the pendency of the suit.
