Akhileshwar Kumar & Ors vs Mustaqim & Ors on 12 December, 2002
In the
3
case reported in AIR 2003 SC 532 Akhileshwar Kr. & Ors. v.
Mustaqim & Ors., it is, inter alia, observed that even if the
person, who requires the premises, is engaged in some business, it
does not mean that he should not start his own independent
business. Moreover, the tenant could not prove that plaintiff No. 3
is settled in any business activity. Further, the case of the
landlords of personal necessity cannot be rejected on the ground
that plaintiff No. 3 and his wife are income tax assessees. In the
absence of order of court, directing Plaintiff No. 3 to produce his
income tax return, the tenant cannot complain that he did not
produce the Income Tax Returns.
