Landlord wins Rs 3.27 cr from tenant in Delhi HC
In a recent Delhi High Court ruling, a tenant was ordered to pay Rs 3.27 crore in mesne profits to his landlady for not vacating the property after the rent agreement period expired. The case involved Mrs. Garg, a landlady in Defence Colony Market, who rented out the first and second floors of her property to a tenant for Rs 62,000 per month.
The original three-year rent agreement, registered in 2002, did not include a renewal clause. However, the tenant continued to pay higher rent even after the agreement expired, leading to the landlady claiming mesne profits.
