Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that acceptance of rent by the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) constituted a renewal of the lease under the Delhi Development Act, 1957, specifically referencing Section 60 which governs the vesting of properties. The Court emphasized that the DDA's actions indicated a continuation of the lease despite prior breaches by the lessee. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision that the lease was effectively renewed upon acceptance of rent.
