https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=171093 Section 14 of the West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act, 1956 was treated as barring only a tenant's voluntary sub-letting, transfer, or assignment without the landlord's consent. A court-conducted sale of a company in liquidation as a going concern was held to be materially different from the voluntary alienation contemplated by the provision. On that basis, the court held that a rigid application of Section 14 would frustrate the preservation of the undertaking and related employment, and the purchaser's continuation in the registered office premises was not barred. The application for disclaimer was rejected. en-us Fri, 11 May 1990 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 09 Jul 2015 18:15:23 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=171093 Section 14 of the West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act, 1956 was treated as barring only a tenant's voluntary sub-letting, transfer, or assignment without the landlord's consent.
