Tenant has filed a suit

Krishna (Querist) 09 May 2015 This query is : Resolved
MY TENANT IS NOT PAYING THE RENT FROM LAST 6 MONTHS AND HE IS NOT PAYING CORPORATION TAX FROM LAST 4 YEARS. HE IS NOT INCREASED A RENT FROM LAST 40 YEARS. RECENTLY I HAVE RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM CORPORATION THAT BUILDING REQUIRES THE REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE. I REPLIED THAT IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO REPAIR THE PREMISES SINCE THERE IS A TENANT IN THE PREMISES. PREMISES CAN BE REPAIRED ONLY AFTER DEMOLITION OF OLD PREMISES. TODAY MY TENANT HAS FILED A SUIT IN THE COURT FOR INJUNCTION THAT HE CANNOT BE EVICTED FORCEFULLY AND ALSO ASKED THE COURT TO DIRECT LANDLORD TO CARRY OUT THE REPAIRS. MY TENANT IS PAYING RS 140 PER MONTH RENT WHILE MARKET RATE OF RENT IS RS 15000. WHAT GROUNDS SHALL I TAKE IN THE COURT IN SUIT WHICH IS FILED BY THE TENANT. SHALL COURT LISTEN TO THE TENANT WHO DONOT PAY THE RENT AND CORPORATION TAX REGULARLY.
