SAMIR MUKHERJEE vs DAVINDER K. BAJAJ — C.A. No. 1906/1998

Summary: Samir Mukherjee v. Davinder K. Bajaj (2001) The Supreme Court dismissed the appellant's eviction appeal, holding that Section 106 of the Transfer of Property Act (which prescribes different notice periods based on lease purpose) cannot apply to oral leases, as Section 107 mandates that year-to-year leases must be created by registered instrument only. Since no registered lease existed here, the 15-day notice for termination was valid despite the manufacturing purpose claim.
