Landlord-tenant

HARI RAO versus N. GOVINDACHARI AND ORS.

A tenant, when leased premises for carrying on a trade without prohibitive covenant, can carry on any trade consistent with premises' nature. Using premises for readymade garments as opposed to leather goods does not constitute a change of user attracting Section 10(2)(ii)(b). Fixing racks, drilling holes, and putting signboards, absent evidence of material impairment, do not amount to acts of waste under Section 10(2)(iii).

Property law

SHRI MUNSHI RAM AND ANR. versus UNION OF INDIA AND ORS.

Eviction under s.14(1)(k) of the Delhi Rent Control Act is valid where premises are misused contrary to lease terms imposed by the paramount lessor (DDA), and insistence by DDA to act upon its notice precludes direction to regularise or permit continued misuser; absence of zonal development plan or regulations under Delhi Development Act does not bar the exercise of lessor's contractual rights under the lease.
