I'm not sure how strong tenant protection is in India, but here in the Netherlands, it's well-understood that purchasing a property is not a valid reason to evict its tenants. Rental properties are sold and purchased with the understanding that they are investments, and that the property owners will not be able to live there (unless the tenants voluntarily leave).
