Gurvachan Kaur & Ors vs Salikram (Dead) Through Lrs on 18 March, 2009
In Gurvachan Kaur v. Salikram (2010) 15 SCC 530, at
para 10, this principle has been reiterated: (SCC p. 532)
"10. It is settled law that in exercise of power under
Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, the High
Court cannot interfere with the finding of fact
recorded by the first appellate court which is the final
court of fact, unless the same is found to be perverse.
This being the position, it must be held that the High
Court was not justified in reversing the finding of fact
recorded by the first appellate court on the issues of
existence of landlord-tenant relationship between the
plaintiff and the defendant and default committed by
the latter in payment of rent."

In S.R. Tiwari v. Union of India (2013) 6 SCC 602, after
referring to the decisions of this Court, starting with Rajinder
Kumar Kindra v. Delhi Administration, (1984) 4 SCC 635, it
was held at para 30: (S.R.Tewari case 6, SCC p. 615)
"30. The findings of fact recorded by a court can be
held to be perverse if the findings have been arrived
at by ignoring or excluding relevant material or by
taking into consideration irrelevant/inadmissible
material. The finding may also be said to be perverse
if it is "against the weight of evidence", or if the
finding so outrageously defies logic as to suffer from
the vice of irrationality. If a decision is arrived at on
the basis of no evidence or thoroughly unreliable
evidence and no reasonable person would act upon it,
the order would be perverse. But if there is some
evidence on record which is acceptable and which
could be relied upon, the conclusions would not be
treated as perverse and the findings would not be
interfered with.
