The Calcutta High Court dismissed Ashok Kumar Gupta's appeal against an eviction decree, upholding that he became a trespasser under Section 2(g) of the West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act, 1997, after the statutory five-year moratorium expired following the original tenant's death in 2005. The court rejected his claims of independent tenancy rights through alleged handover by his father or sub-tenancy status, finding no valid landlord approval or documentary evidence, and held that any sub-tenancy would have terminated with the original tenant's demise. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
