Summarize the following court judgment. Appeal No. 991/76. (Appeal by Special Leave from the Judgment and Order dated the 21.1.1976 of the Madhya Pradesh High Court in Second Appeal No. 415 of 1971) section Choudhury	 D.N. Mishra	 O.C. Mathur and Shri Narain for the appellant. G.L. Sanghi	 V.K. Sanghi	 R.K. Sanghi and S.N. Khanduja for the respondent. The Judgment of the Court was delivered by KRISHNA IYER	 J. A suit for eviction of an accommodation from the tenant to whom it had been let for residential and non residential 768 purposes resulted in dismissal by the trial Judge. But in an appeal	 the final court of fact took the view that the landlord (respondent) was entitled to eviction. The tenant challenged the appellate decree before the High Court in Second Appeal without success and has therefore come up to this Court with this appeal by special leave. A short point has been raised which deserves only a short answer. Since we agree with the High Court which in turn has agreed with the first appellate court	 our judgment can afford to be brief. A statement of necessary facts may now be given. The landlord had let out the premises	 which is a storeyed building	 to be tenant as per exhibit P 1 of 1955. The signif icant clause in the lease deed runs thus: "1 XXX 2. I take your house for my own use i.e. for opening a cloth shop and for residential purposes and I will not sublet your house to anybody. XXX XXX XXX XXX. " The tenant has thus put the building to busi ness and residential purposes. The landlord	 who is an M. Sc.	 claimed the building back on the score that he wanted to run a medical store on the ground floor a non residential purpose and stay on the first floor with his wife a residential purpose. Thus the acommo dation was let out for dual purposes	 was being used presumably for these requirements and was being claimed back by the landlord for the twin purposes mentioned above. The final court of fact has held that the landlord needs the building for his chemist 's shop and for his residential use. The High Court in Second Appeal has upheld this finding and added that "the finding as to his bonafide requirement was rightly not challenged before me . The conclusion that the courts have reached is the only conclusion possible on the evidence on record in the light of the circumstances appearing. " This statement by the High Court that the bonafide requirement of the landlord was not challenged before it has not been questioned in the memorandum of appeal to this Court. It must therefore be taken that the bonafide need of the landlord is validly made out. The short point that survives is as to whether the composite purposes of the lease would put it out of the ground set out for eviction under section 2 of the Madhya Pradesh Accommodation Control Act	 1961. The said Act defines 'accommodation ' thus: " 'accommodation ' means any building or part of a building	 whether residential or non residential and includes	 XX XXX XXX. " 769 It follows that an accommodation can be resi dential	 non residential or both. section 12 bars an action of eviction of a tenant from any accommodation except on one or more of the grounds set out therein. section 12(1) (e) and (f)	 bearing on the present case	 may be appropriately extracted here: "12. Restriction on eviction of tenents (1) (a) to (d) x x x x x (e) that the accommodation let for residential purposes is required bona fide by the landlord for occupation as a residence for himself or for any member of his family	 if he is the owner thereof	 or for any person for whose benefit the accommodation is held. and that the landlord or such person has no other reasonably suitable residential accommoda tion of his own in the occupation in the city or town concerned; (f) that the accommodation let for non residential purposes is required bona fide by the landlord for the purpose of continuing or starting his business or that of any of his major sons or unmarried daughters if he is the owner thereof or for any person for whose benefit the accommodation is held and that the landlord or such person has no other reasona bly suitable non residential accommodation of his own in his occupation in the city or town concerned;. XXX XXX XXX. " The residential portion is a part of the building and is an accommodation by defini tion. The non residential portion is also a part of the building and is an accommoda tion by definition. The lease has been given for residential as well as non residential purposes. The landlord is entitled to evic tion of the residential portion if he makes out a bonafide residential requirement. Likewise he is entitled to eviction of the non residential portion which is an accommoda tion if he makes out a non residential requirement. We have already found that the final court of fact	 affirmed by the High Court	 has found in favour of the landlord regarding his residential as well as non residential requirements. Therefore	 nothing more can be done in defence of the tenant in the light of the present law. Counsel contended that in a decision of this Court	 viz	 section Sanyal vs Gian Chand	(1) it has been held that it is not permissible for the court to split up a contract in an eviction proceeding. We agree. There is no question of splitting up of the contract in the present case	 as is abundantly plain from what we: have stated. The contract was integral but had dual purposes. The landlord has put forward dual requirements which neatly fit into section 12(1)(e) and (f). The conse quence is inevitable that the eviction order has to be upheld. (1) ; 770 It is seep	 that the tenant has been doing a thriving cloth business	 with goodwill attached to it	 for well knigh 30 years. It is therefore but fair that the. tenant is given sometime to rehabilitate himself by securing an alter native but suitable accommodation. In our towns where scarcity of accommodation is the rule it is not that easy to secure alternative premises. Taking due note of this reali ty	 we direct that while dismissing the appeal the eviction order shall not be put into execution before 1st January	 1978. Parties will bear their respective costs. S.R. Appeal dismissed.

Under sub clauses (e) and (f) of section 12(1) of the Madhya Pradesh Accommodation Control Act	 1961	 a landlord can evict a tenant	 if the residential and the non residential accommodation respectively let out to the latter is required bona fide by him for occupation as a residence and for the purpose of continuing or starting his business. Accommoda tion under the Act means any building or part of a building	 whether residential or non residential. The appellant tenant was inducted in by the respondent in 1955 for the dual purposes of residential and non resi dential purpose of running a cloth shop. The landlord	 bona fide required the building for his residence and also for starting his business of running a Chemist shop. The Evic tion Suit filed by him was dismissed by the trial court	 but the appellant and the High Court 		ranted him the eviction decree. Discussing the appeal by special leave	 the Court. HELD: The residential portion as well as a non residen tial portion are parts of the building and each is an accom modation by definition. The landlord is entitled to evic tion of the "accommodation" if he makes out a bona fide residential and non residential requirement of the portions. In the instant case the contract was integral but had dual purpose. The landlord has put forward dual requirements which neatly fit into section 12(1)(e) and (f) of the Madhya Pradesh Accommodation Control Act	 1961. The findings of the appellate Court regarding the bona fide requirement of the landlord	 not having been challenged in the High Court and in this Court in the memorandum of Appeal	 the conse quence viz. eviction is inevitable. [769 E G] section Sanyal vs Gianchand ; 	 distinguished. [The Court	 however granted time to the appellants for vacating the building till 1 1 1978	 in terms of equity].
