Amendment subject to no relation back eviction suit rent control act bombay Amendment subject to no relation back eviction suit rent control act bombay

4 years ago

I am tenant
Landlord file suit in 1999 under old Bombay Rent Control Act for my eviction for unauthorised alterations done. In 2001 new Maharashtra rent control act implemented but provision is that old pending cases will continue under old Bombay Rent Control Act and new act is not applicable.
In September 2019 I acquired alternate premises which is a ground for eviction under old Bombay Rent Control Act but not under new Maharashtra rent control act.
Landlord applied for amendment and court allowed the amendment to add additional cause of action of acquiring alternate premises subject to theory of NOT relation back. So amendment is effective from date Sep 2019 and not 1999 year.

My question is will this amendment result in my eviction because I have acquired new alternate premises in 2019 and also court has said that it is effective from 2019 and not dare of filing suit. The suit is continuing under old Bombay Rent Control Act


Please advise.
