The Supreme Court ruled that a tenant who lawfully entered a property but remains after their right to do so expires must compensate the landlord. Justices J K Maheshwari and Sanjay Karol directed Ashwini Bhanulal Desai to deposit Rs 5,15,05,512 within four weeks, based on an application by landlord Bijay Kumar Manish Kumar HUF. The court noted the property is in central Kolkata and the landlord had been deprived of rent for a long period. The bench stated that the tenant had delayed payments and that landlords have a right to income from rented property. The dispute involved a lease agreement from 1991, with the tenant defaulting on rent since 2002. The tenant must deposit the amount or face legal consequences.
