When change of flooring will not amount additions and alterations of permanent nature?

Menghraj Visandas Jeswani Vs. Babulal Uttam Chand Bhandari and

others [1983 (1) AIRCJ 730], wherein the Hon'ble Bombay High Court

held that, the flooring, which was probably originally of a different

material has been converted into a cement flooring by itself does not

amount to permanent erection. If anything, the quality of the flooring was

improved by the said act done by the petitioner, connecting different parts

of the machinery which had been erected by way of pillars and pipelines

could by no stretch of imagination be characterised as erection of anything

of permanent nature.
