If the eviction suit is file you have to fight out a case. If you are in and around Mumbai you can contact me.

Apparently the owner wants to appropriate the security deposit in alleged loss due to negligence.
Rent agreement can be place before court.
Discuss with a very able senior LOCAL counsel of unshakable repute and integrity specializing in such/civil matters and having successful track record….

Since your client was in possession of the demised premises, s/he is liable for the damages caused to the premises due to fire incident.
Eviction of tenant is altogether a different subject, which is irrelevant to the damages of premises caused by fire.
