MADAN LAL Appellant

JAGDISH CHAND Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THIS is landlord's revision against the appellate order dated August 11, 1987 passed in appeal arising out of a suit for fixation of standard rent filed under section 6 of the Rajasthan Premises (Control of Rent and Eviction) Act, 1950, by the tenant. Admittedly the agreed monthly rent was Rs. 325/ -. The suit was filed by the tenant claiming that the rent agreed was excessive and, therefore, praying for fixation of slandered rent for the premises. The trial court dismissed the suit. The appeal court has partly allowed the plaintiff's claim and fixed Rs, 215/- per month as the standard rent. Hence this revision by the landlord.

(2.) ADMITTEDLY the only evidence produced in the suit is that of the plain-tiff, tenant. The plaintiff's version is that the suit "premises which is a shop was constructed in the year 1975-76; it was first let out to a barber at the rate of Rs. 150/- per month, then to Parmanand Asandas at the rate of Rs. 215/. per-month; and thereafter to the plaintiff at the rate of Rs. 325/- per month. On this basis the plaintiff claimed fixation of standard rent @ Rs. 150/- per month.

(3.) CONSEQUENTLY, the revision is dismissed. No costs. .
