New Owner can't ask you to vacate Shop, he may increase rent,but he can't increase rent above standard rent.If new owner ask u higher rent then you may file application in civil court for fixing standar rent. standard rent is differ according to location op proerty& building.

praveen ji,
new owner has no right to vacate the same.
only the court has the rights.
even new owner can't file any vacate suit against tenant with in six months.
