In Brief
West Bengal Small Industries Development Corporation challenged a High Court order quashing its eviction notice against Sona Promoters Pvt. Ltd. The Corporation had leased three vacant plots of land and sought to evict the tenant. The High Court found that the leased property—being bare land without any building—did not satisfy the statutory definition of a building under the Companies Act, 1956, and therefore the Corporation lacked jurisdiction to proceed with eviction. The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal, upholding the High Court's reasoning and conclusion.
