|Punjab and Haryana High Court
Rent Control Act | Tenant Granted 6 Months to Vacate Despite Breaching Mediation Undertaking, If Binding Affidavit and Payment Terms Accepted : PHHC
The Punjab & Haryana High Court allowed a tenant six months to vacate premises despite violating a court-recorded mediation undertaking, but only on the condition of filing a binding affidavit and adhering to strict, court-monitored payment obligations. This reinforces that equitable relief in rent control cases is discretionary and contingent on demonstrable good faith, not a right arising from procedural breach.
