OM PRAKASH GUPTA vs RANBIR B. GOYAL — C.A. No. 5460/1999

Summary: The Supreme Court dismissed the tenant's appeal against an eviction decree. The tenant (appellant) argued that the landlord's title had been extinguished when HUDA initiated resumption proceedings, claiming eviction by paramount title. The Court rejected this defense, holding that: (1) no final order of resumption existed, and HUDA's earlier resumption order had been set aside on appeal, so the landlord's title remained valid; and (2) the tenant improperly relied on subsequent events without formal amendment of pleadings or proper notice. The Court ordered the tenant to vacate within three months and clear rent arrears within three weeks. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
