: 1 : IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CIVIL REVISION APPLICATION NO.717 OF 2009 Balwanta Yadav .. Applicant V/s. Ramdas Govind Ambokar .. Respondent Mr. Nishant Sasidharan with Mr. V.S. Pandey i/b. Mr. E.K. Sasidharan for the Applicant. Mr. P.S. Dani i/b. Mr. R.S. Khandeparkar for the Respondent. CORAM : SMT. NISHITA MHATRE, J. DATED : 10 TH DECEMBER, 2009. P.C.: 1. The Civil Revision Application has been filed against the concurrent findings of fact arrived at by the Small Causes Court and the Appellate Court. The trial Court has held that the applicant is in arrears of payment of rent and has carried out a permanent construction. Besides this, it has decreed the Suit on the ground of change of user of the suit premises since it was held that the applicant had used the residential premises for commercial purposes. : 2 : 2. The Appellate Court has confirmed the findings of the trial Court with respect to arrears of rent and for change of user. However, the finding with regard to permanent alterations has been set aside. 3. The main contention raised on behalf of the applicant is that the applicant is the owner of the suit property and, therefore, the question of paying any rent to the respondent does not arise. It is submitted that there was a conveyance executed by which the applicant has become owner of the suit property. 4. Admittedly, the respondent was not present when the conveyance was registered and, therefore, has not admitted its execution. The question of accepting such a conveyance does not arise. 5. In my view, since both the Courts below have found on evidence that the respondent-plaintiff had established the landlord-tenant relationship with the applicant, there is no need to interfere in the matter. The case of the plaintiff with respect to : 3 : default in payment of rent and change of user has rightly been accepted by both the Courts below. 6. The Civil Revision Application is rejected. 7. On the application made by the learned Advocate for the applicant, the decree is stayed for a period of 12 weeks from today on the usual undertaking being furnished to this Court by the applicant and all adult persons in his family within a period of two weeks from today. .......
