(Oral) This revision petition is directed by the tenant against the order dated 12.8.2009 passed by the Rent Controller. Mohali, assessing the provisional rent of the demised premises-shop, situated at Village Mohali, Tehsil and District Mohali, @ Rs.1000/- per month w.e.f. March, 2004. The petitioner-tenant claims that the rent of the demised premises is @ Rs.300/- per month only. The shop is situated in Village Mohali, which has now become a District Headquarter. The provisional rent assessed by the Rent Controller, prima-facie, cannot be said to be excessive or arbitrary. In any C.R. No.5725 of 2009 (O&M) 2 case, it is a matter of evidence and if the petitioner succeeds in proving that the rate of rent is @ Rs.300/- per month, he is entitled to refund or adjustment of the excessive payment made by him. With this observation, the revision petition is dismissed. 06-10-2009 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
