From any premises

From any premises, The words 'from any premises' cannot be connected with the phrase 'for the fixation of standard rent', because then the preposition would have been 'of any premises' or 'for any premises' and not 'from any premises'. This means that the first phrase has to be read as complete in itself beginning from the words 'for the fixation' and ending with the words 'standard rent'. The second phrase then reads 'or for the eviction of a tenant from any premises'. The words 'from any premises' go very clearly with the words 'eviction of a tenant' and not with the words 'any suit or proceeding', Jai Narain v. Kishanchand, AIR 1969 SC 1165: (1969) 1 SCC 1165: (1969) 3 SCR 854....

Fifteen day's wages

Fifteen day's wages, In any factory it is well known that an employee never works and could never be permitted to work for all the 30 days of the month.
