Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in reversing the concurrent findings of the trial court and first appellate court regarding the landlord-tenant relationship and the right of Vallabhdas to sell the property. The Court emphasized that the first appellate court's findings were not perverse and upheld the eviction order based on arrears of rent. Consequently, the appeal was allowed, the High Court's judgment was set aside, and the first appellate court's order was restored, granting the respondents two months to vacate the premises.
