Kannankandi Gopal Krishna Nair Vs. Prakash Chunder Juneja and Another

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Apr-19-1993

M.F. Saldanha, J.1. Though this appeal is just one more of the numerous litigations relating to the non-return of a company flat by an ex-employee, it raises certain interesting legal aspects of far-reaching consequences. The first question that arises is as to whether the employee whose wife has subsequently purchased the premises and, therefore, become the owner thereof can still be ordered to restore the possession to the company which continues to be the tenant. Since section 630 of the Companies Act, 1956, deals essentially with the question of wrongful withholding, the restoration of possession is a necessary relief which can and must be granted regardless of the change of ownership. 2. The more important dimension, however, surrounds the anatomy of the offence. The accused resigned from the services of the company on February 28, 1977, and the resignation was accepted with effect from March 1, 1977, and the company called upon him to restore possession of the flat by March 31, 1...
