JUSTICE KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA Present: Mr. Sunil Chadha, Advocate for the petitioner. KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA, J. (ORAL) Case was fixed for provisional assessment of the rent. Parties to the litigation admitted that rate of rent was Rs.7986/- per month w.e.f. 1st April, 2005. However, tenant claimed that Rs.3,000/- is to be adjusted towards interest payable by the landlord to the tenant, on the loan advanced. Rent Controller has determined the provisional rent as Rs.7986/- per month and held that amount of interest to be paid on the loan cannot be taken into consideration. This order of assessment of provisional rent was interim in nature and interlocutory. Parties will get fair opportunity to lead evidence for determination of the rent. Even otherwise, rent paid in excess or in deficiency can be adjusted. Impugned order was passed on 15th November, 2006. Two years are going to elapse. By now, main petition may have concluded. Therefore, no interference is called for and the present revision petition is dismissed. [KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA] JUDGE October 30, 2008 rps
