PAYAL VISION LTD vs RADHIKA CHOUDHARY

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in reversing the trial court's decree for possession under Order XII Rule 6 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, as the relationship of landlord and tenant and the service of notice of termination were admitted. The Court emphasized that the existence of a tenancy is established despite the tenant's challenge to the lease deed's validity due to lack of registration, citing Section 116 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, which prevents a tenant from denying the landlord's title. The appeal was allowed, reinstating the trial court's decree for possession.
