Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court granted a five-year period for tenants to vacate premises, emphasizing that they must not default on rental payments or sublet the property. The Court set aside the High Court's orders and restored the Rent Controller's decision, affirming the First Appellate Authority's ruling. This decision underscores the landlord's rights under tenancy laws while balancing the tenants' long-term occupation of the property.
