The Rent Controller allowed the application. The Appellate Tribunal upheld the order. However, the High Court, in the revision petition filed by the landlord, set aside the concurrent orders of the tribunals below and rejected the tenant's application on the grounds that the tenant filed the application belatedly when the examination of PW1 had already been over; and that in the additional WS a new plea was raised, which was a fundamental alteration of the pleadings already put forth in the WS.

CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE, 1908:Or. 41 - r. 27 - Production of additional evidence in appellate court - HELD: Filing of documents as additional evidence must be in terms of Or. 41
r. 27 - Supreme Court Rules, 1966.The appellants, (slum dwellers) and/or their predecessors-in-interest had encroached upon a property bearing CTS No.61. An agreement dated 26.6.2005 was entered into between the parties with regard to rehabilitation of the appellants on CTS No.82. One of the conditions of the agreement was that the appellants would obtain eligibility certificate from the competent authority. However, the respondents started construction of commercial building on Survey No.82. The appellants filed a suit in the City Civil Court for a declaration inter alia that the plaintiffs were entitled to be provided a flat each of carpet area of 225 sq.ft. on CTS No.82. An interim injunction was prayed that pending final disposal of the suit, construction activities on CTS No.82 be stayed. The trial court held that as the appellant failed to obtain essentiality certificate and CTS no.61 was not declared as slum area, the question of taking recourse of the Slum Rehabilitation Scheme did not arise. The appeal filed by the slum dwellers having been dismissed by the High Court, they filed the appeal.
