https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=172824 Unlawful subletting under section 13(1)(e) of the Bombay Rents, Hotel and Lodging House Rates Control Act, 1947 is made out once it is shown that the tenant had sublet the premises unlawfully; the sub-tenancy need not continue to exist on the date of the suit. The expression "has sublet" was treated as referring to the fact of subletting having occurred, not to a continuing state up to filing. The Court distinguished earlier authority as arising in a different statutory context and rejected the argument that a tenant could defeat eviction by ending the sub-tenancy after notice. The eviction decree was upheld. en-us Fri, 29 Aug 1975 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 10:36:32 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=172824 Unlawful subletting under section 13(1)(e) of the Bombay Rents, Hotel and Lodging House Rates Control Act, 1947 is made out once it is shown that the tenant had sublet the premises unlawfully; the sub-tenancy need not continue to exist on the date of the suit.
