The aforesaid reasonable period to vacate the premises as well as mesne profit @ Rs.1,000/- from 01.06.2016 is accepted by learned counsel for the appellant without any demure. 6. 5. The aforesaid reasonable period to vacate the premises as well as mesne profit @ Rs.1,000/- from 01.06.2016 is accepted by learned counsel for the appellant without any demure. 6. Accordingly, the present second appeal of the appellant/defendant is closed with a direction to the appellant/defendant to submit an undertaking to the effect that she will hand over the peaceful and vacant possession of the suit premises to the respondent/landlord on or before 31.12.2017 with the following conditions: (i) The appellant/defendant shall submit an undertaking and shall hand-over the vacant and peaceful possession of the suit shop in dispute to the respondent/plaintiff on or before 31.12.2017 and shall not cause any damage to the rented property and shall maintain the same as it is.
