Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Madras High Court dismissing the revision petitions filed by the tenant under the Tamil Nadu Buildings Lease and Rent (Control) Act, 1960, specifically Section 4, regarding the fixation of fair rent for non-residential properties. The Court affirmed the appellate authority's determination of rent based on market value assessments, holding that the landlord's claims were substantiated. Consequently, the appeals were dismissed, maintaining the higher rent fixed by the appellate authority.
