Rashmi Kant Vijay Chandra vs Baijnath Choubey And Company

The Supreme Court analyzed the landlord-tenant dispute under the West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act, 1956, specifically addressing the legality of sub-letting under Section 13(1)(b). The Court established that a landlord can seek eviction if the tenant has sublet the premises without consent, and upheld the First Appellate Court's decision to grant eviction in favor of the landlord. The judgment of the High Court was affirmed, allowing the eviction of the tenant based on the findings of illegal sub-letting.
