Baburao vs Pokhardas(D) Tr.Lrs

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the landlord's revision application, affirming the District Court's finding that the tenant was not a willful defaulter under Section 15 of the Hyderabad Houses (Rent, Eviction, and Lease) Control Act, 1954. The Court noted that the tenant had deposited the rent promptly upon receiving notice and that the landlord's claim of ownership was disputed in an ongoing civil case. The appeal was dismissed, confirming the lower courts' decisions regarding the eviction application.
