Judgment
This is a suit for possession and other reliefs against defendant in respect of property
bearing MIG flat No. BP 392, 3" floor, Pitam Pura, Delhi. It is stated that plaintiff had let out
the above said suit property with monthly rent of Rs.13300/- excluding electricity and water
charges w.e.f 01.02.2014 for the period of 11 months under written agreement dated 13.02.14
which was duly registered before Sub Registrar. It is stated that at the time of creation of
tenancy defendant had deposited Rs.30,000/- as interest free security amount which was
refundable at the time of vacation of premises upon expiry of the same. It is alleged that
defendant is in arrear of rent since 1 Nov 2014. Defendant had given cheque bearing no.345535 dated 01.11.2014 drawn on Canara Bank, Pitam Pura Branch, but when said cheque
was presented for encashment, same retured dishonored with remarks “fund insufficient’. It
is stated that since tenancy was created for period of 11 months and tenancy has come to
end by afflux of time i.e 31.12.2014 and thus tenancy has already determined. It is stated that
legal notice dated 01.12.2014 was sent to defendant but when defendant failed to send the
reply of the same, present suit was filed for relief of possession regarding property in
question i.e MIG flat No. BP 392, 3° floor, Pitam Pura, Delhi. Plaintiff has also prayed for
decree of sum of Rs.27987.75/- on account of arrear of rent with interest @ 15% as well as
plaintiff has also sought mesne profit @ Rs.26600/- til vacation of the premises.
Defendant was duly served with the summons however, after filling of vakalatnama on
behalf of counsel for the defendant, time was given for filling of WS, however, despite giving
repeated opportunities WS was not filed and consequently, defence of the defendant was
struck off on account of not filling of WS, However, in the mean time plaintiff and defendant
entered in to the settlement on 31.03.2015 whereby defendant gave the statement that he is
tenant in the premises in question with monthly rent of Rs.13300/-. Defendant undertook to
vacate the premises on or before 30.06.2015 by making complete payment of arrear of rent
up to date, However, defendant despite giving the statement / undertaking, failed to vacate
the tenanted premises by 30.06.2015, Thereafter, father of the defendant had given
statement on 01.07.2015 undertaking that premises will be vacated on 10.07.2015, even
thereafter, premises was not vacated as per the settlement’ undertaking. Despite giving
repeated opportunities to settle the matter, when premises was not vacated evidence of PW-1
was recorded on 14.07.2015. On the same day father of the defendant had also handed over
the keys of the premises in question and gave another statement to make complete payment
of arrear of rent up to the vacating of the tenanted premises
Today Ld. Counsel for the plaintiff had given the separate statement whereby it is
stated that since as per the undertaking of the defendant complete payment of arrear of rent
has not been paid by defendant. Therefore, plaintiff wants the matter to be proceeded on
merits.
I have heard Ld. Counsel for the plaintiff and have gone through the record carefully.
Having considered the facts and circumstances, the fact that defendant is tenant in the
premises in question with month rent of Rs.13300/- is not disputed. The fact that tenancy was
for period of 11 months and same came to end by afflux of time is also not disputed.
Considering the undisputed fact and also considering the fact that defendant despite givingundertaking, failed to comply with whole of terms. | find that plaintiff is entitled for decree of
possession, but possession of premises in question has already been given by defendant to
plaintiff on 14.07.2015. Therefore, suit is decreed for arrear of rent for sum of Rs.26,600/- in
respect of 2 months rent w.e.f 01.11.2014 to 31.12.2014 and plaintiff is also entitled for relief
of mesne profits @ Rs.13300/- from 14” Jan 2015 till 14" July 2015, the day when the
tenanted premises was handed over to plaintiff. Plaintiff is also given interest @ 18% on
arrear of rent. Suit stands accordingly decreed. Decree sheet be prepared, File be consigned
to record room.
