Case Summary: C.A. No. 538/1998 Outcome: Supreme Court allowed the appeal and restored lower courts' findings that the appellant (Mulla Gulam Ali & Safiabai D. Trust) is a public charitable trust. The Court set aside the High Court's contrary finding, holding that family control over trust management does not negate its public charitable character when trust objects demonstrably serve public benefit. Key Direction: Respondent (M/s. Deelip Kumar & Co.) directed to vacate rented premises and return possession by 28.2.2002, paying monthly rent of Rs.2,250 from March 1, 2001 onwards, subject to filing usual undertaking.
