This revision is filed by landlord questioning the order dated 8.8.2002 passed by the learned Appellate Authority (Principal Senior Civil Judge), Rajahmundry in R.C.A No. 26 of 1999.

2. The facts, in brief, are as follows,

The petitioner-landlord filed an application for fixation of fair rent vide R.C.C.No. 68 of 1992 before the Rent Controller (Principal Junior Civil Judge,) Rajahmundry. On trial, the learned Rent Controller enhanced the rent from existing Rs.50/- to Rs.300/- per month with effect from the date of application under Section 4 of the A.P. Buildings (Lease, Rent & Eviction) Control Act, 1960 (for short "the Act") i.e., 13.5.1992. The learned Rent Controller also ordered that the landlord shall be entitled for enhancement of rent at the rate of 30% over the existing rent once in three years. The tenant questioned the said order before the Appellate Authority (Principal Senior Civil Judge), Rajahmundry vide R.C.A.Nos. 26 of 1999 which has been partly allowed under the impugned order. The Appellate Authority has confirmed the Rent Controller's order fixing the rent at Rs.300/- per month, but has interfered with it in respect of periodical increase of rent by 30%
