Case History
The Supreme Court reversed the High Court's decision, holding that the tenant defaulted in complying with Section 9 of the Chennai City Tenants' Protection Act, 1921. The Court ruled that once a court fixes the sale price and payment period, the tenant must deposit the amount within that specified timeframe; failure to do so constitutes default, even if an appeal or revision is pending, unless the superior court grants an interim stay. Since the tenant failed to deposit the enhanced price within the appellate court's prescribed period without obtaining interim relief, the tenant's Section 9 application was dismissed and the deposited amount was ordered refunded.
