Supreme Court sets aside eviction order against Ashok Kumar Sharma, restoring possession of his auto repair shop in Chandigarh.
The appellant had defaulted on lease payments totaling ₹6.57 lakh in 2009, leading to cancellation and eviction proceedings.
Court ruled continuation of resumption would be punitive since appellant has now paid all outstanding dues including ₹10 lakh deposit.
Appellant must maintain regular future payments to Chandigarh Administration to retain the 99-year leasehold shop allotment.
