: 1 : IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CIVIL REVISION APPLICATION NO.788 OF 2009 Smita Kamlakar Bhagwat & Ors. .. Applicants V/s. Dhirajlal P. Jaradi .. Respondent Mrs. A.R.S. Baxi for the Applicants. Mr. P.K. Dhakephalkar, Sr. Advocate, i/b. Mr. G.S. Bhat for the Respondent. CORAM : SMT. NISHITA MHATRE, J. DATED : 15 TH JANUARY, 2010. P.C.: 1. This Civil Revision Application has been filed challenging the decree passed by the Small Causes Court on 4th August, 2005 in B.A.E. & R. Suit No. 1067/2195 of 1996, which has been confirmed by the Appellate Court of the Small Causes Court by order dated 5th November, 2009 passed in Appeal No.107 of 2006. Both the Courts have concurrently held that the applicants, who are the original tenants, were in default in payment of rent. The demand notice was issued on 5th September, 1996 by the landlord demanding rent from December, 1995 to August, 1996 as well as the difference of Repair Cess. A : 2 : standard rent application was filed by the original tenant alongwith other tenants of the building on 17th October, 1996. It appears that the standard rent application has been dismissed on 20th June, 2003. The present Suit was filed on 27th December, 1996. Therefore, both the Courts have concluded that the applicants have not complied with the provisions of law and deposited the rent payable within the stipulated period. The contention of the learned Advocate that the rent has been deposited before the issues were framed cannot be accepted, since that amount is not inclusive of the interest which is payable in accordance with Section 12(3) (b) of the Bombay Rents, Hotel and Lodging House Rates Control Act, 1947. 2. In my opinion, the Courts below have not committed any error requiring interference from this Court in its revisionary jurisdiction. 3. The Civil Revision Application is dismissed. : 3 : 4. On the application made by the learned Advocate for the applicants, the decree shall not be executed for a period of one year from today on the usual undertaking being furnished by the applicants and all adults in their family to this Court within a period of two weeks from today. .......
