Case Summary: V. Radhakrishnan v. S.N. Loganatha Mudaliar The Supreme Court dismissed the tenant's appeal but clarified that under Section 10(3)(a)(iii) of the Tamil Nadu Buildings (Lease & Rent Control) Act, 1960, a landlord may evict a tenant to provide premises for a family member's business if that family member does not already occupy any non-residential building. The landlord's own occupation of premises is irrelevant; only the family member's occupancy status matters. The Court upheld the eviction order for the landlord's son, who owned no business premises, and granted the tenant until June 30, 1999 to vacate.
