If there is rent agreement or the tenant is paying rent to landlord then it is never possible that tenant can be owner by prescripttion; thatmeans in any way if landlord proves tenency the adverse possesion terms are not applicable.

In other words, the law does not permit the tenant to be owner, in that capacity. Yes, he can purchase and be the owner; but he is no longer the owner.

I think there is another possibility i.e. if the owner dies intestate leaving the tenant as the , sole occupier of the property under a valid agreement ,then in that case ,he can enter into the legal process seeking transfer of ownership.
Experts may like to offer considered views.

A tenant shall always remain a "tenant" and never (NEVER) the "titleholder"/owner.
If there is some truth in the story it is advisable to consult a local prudent lawyer for better appreciation of facts/ documents, professional guidance and necessary proceeding.
