Smt. Abnash Rani Suri vs Smt. Santosh Chaudhary on 5 September, 2011

"Ownership of the property which is the subject­matter of tenancy is certainly a larger estate than the tenancy itself and naturally larger than the sub­tenancy. If the sub­tenant acquires the entire interest of the owner in the whole of the estate forming the subject­ matter of sub­tenancy, the sub­tenancy merges into ownership and the estate of sub­tenant stands enlarged into that of a full owner. The sub­ tenant cannot be the owner and the sub­tenant both at the same time. Of course, the situation would have been different if the sub­tenant would not have acquired the entire estate of the owner or the ownership interest in the entire estate forming subject­matter of sub­ lease, as was the case in Badri Narain Jha an others vs. Rameshwar Dayal Singh and others, AIR 1951 SC 186 or in Shaikh Faqir Baksh v. Murli Dhar and others, AIR 1931 PC 63.

N. Rajeswari And Ors. vs S.P. Palaniappan And Ors. on 28 October, 1983

On behalf of the appellants, three contentions have been urged before me. It was first contended that the purchase by the defendant from Hanumantha Rao will not bring about a merger of the leasehold and the vendee's interest because the purchase was only of a half-share. Reliance was placed in support of this contention on the decision of the judicial Committee in Faquir Baksh V. Murli Dhar (1931)61 M.L.J. 261 : L.R. 58 I.A. 75 : I.L.R. (1931) 6 Luck. 197 : A.I.R 1931 P.C. 63. As a proposition of law there can be little doubt that, if a person is a tenant of the whole of a property, the acquisition by him of ownership in a portion thereof will not of itself extinguish the leasehold interest.

Vinay Verma vs Kamlesh Tiwari on 18 January, 2023

"6. Thus, the ingredients are that two immediate estates should come into the hands of the same person at the same time and it must be rights in the whole of the property. A merger is prevented if there is an intermediate estate outstanding with another at the relevant time. Obviously, the taking of an assignment of a fraction of the reversion, or the rights of a co-owner landlord, does not and cannot bring about a determination of the lease in terms of Section 111(d) of the Transfer of Property Act. That a lease is not extinguished because the lessee purchases a part of the reversion was laid down by the Privy Council in Sk. Faqir Bakhsh vs. Murli Dhar (1931) 58 IA 75. Their Lordships after setting out the terms of Section 111 of the Transfer of Property Act quoted with approval (at IA p. 78) the statement of the law made by the trial Court in that case that for a merger to take place, "the fusion of interests required by law is to be in respect of the whole of the property."
