Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the implications of the Textile Undertakings (Nationalisation) Act, 1995, and the Bombay Rents, Hotel and Lodging House Rates Control Act, 1947, in the context of tenancy rights. The Court held that the NTC, as a statutory tenant, could not be evicted without due process, emphasizing the need for adherence to the legal framework established by the 1947 Act. The Court ruled in favor of the Trust, allowing the eviction suit to proceed, thereby affirming the Trust's rights over the property in question.
