Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Madras High Court dismissing the revision petitions filed by the tenant against the order fixing fair rent under Section 4 of the Tamil Nadu Buildings Lease and Rent (Control) Act, 1960. The Court confirmed the appellate authority's determination of monthly rents based on the market value of land, emphasizing the importance of fair rent assessment in landlord-tenant disputes. The Court found no grounds to interfere with the lower courts' findings, thereby affirming the increased rent amounts.
