Maharashtra Rent Control Act | Licensee Cannot Claim Tenancy Rights Post-License Expiry Despite Agreement for Sale : Bombay HC

Bombay HC reaffirms that a licensee's possession rights terminate upon license expiry, even if an Agreement for Sale was executed during the license period. The court held that the licensee must vacate the premises and seek independent remedies for the Agreement, reinforcing the distinction between licensee and tenant rights under the Maharashtra Rent Control Act.
