Summary of R.P.(C) No. 000839/1998 - Srinivasiah v. Sri Balaji Krishna Hardware Stores The Supreme Court allowed the landlord's review petition and reversed its earlier Civil Appeal decision. The Court found that it had mistakenly assumed the available vacant space behind the tenant's shop was a "shop," when it was actually a "godown" (warehouse) unsuitable for retail business—a fact established by the Rent Controller and Appellate Authority. Since the landlord had bona fide need for the tenant's shop for his son's business and no suitable alternative shop space existed, the Court restored the High Court's eviction order, granting the tenant until May 31, 1999 to vacate.
