Bhupinder Singh Bawa v. Asha Devi
Sait Nagjee Purushotham & Co. Ltd. v. Vimalabai Prabhulal AIR 2006 SC 770
The bona fide necessity for eviction of a tenant is assessed solely from the landlord's perspective, not the tenant's claims regarding the availability of alternative premises.
The landlord's bonafide requirement for the premises and the landlord's right to choose a suitable premise for carrying on the business are key legal principles established in the judgment.
The court established that a landlord's bona fide need for premises must be genuine, and the existence of alternate accommodations must be evaluated in context.
The court emphasized the importance of upholding findings of fact arrived at by the lower tribunals and the landlord's right to choose the best place for doing business.
Amendments to pleadings regarding bona fide necessity must be timely and relevant, and subsequent events do not negate the landlord's bona fide need for the premises.
