Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to grant specific performance and recovery of possession under the specific performance provisions of the Specific Relief Act, 1963. The Court found that the plaintiffs, as joint owners of the property, were entitled to enforce the lease agreement despite the defendants' claims of a sub-lease. The judgment emphasized that the original lease terms were binding and that the defendants had no right to alter the agreement without the plaintiffs' consent, thereby affirming the plaintiffs' rights to the property.
