If the premises is being used for commercial purposes and that too in violation of law and against the terms and conditions agreed between the parties then it is a good ground for eviction of tenant from the said property.

approach some local lawyer and move under the laws applicable to the said property.

Well advised, agree to it.
Running a commercial activity in residential flat without consent of land lord is sufficient ground of eviction of tenant.
