In law the Landlord can tell you to vacate the property even if he has many houses and it does not matter for how many years you have been living in it. You state that you took legal action and it was decided in your favour. Until I see those legal documents/orders, I cannot advise you.

As far as the legal position is concerned the tenant has no right to dictate the need of the landlord to get the property vacated. Its the pure discretion of the landlord to seek for eviction of property in relation of his need. You have no other option then to seek time from him to vacate the premises. Secondly if he files a suit of eviction. You can request the Court to grant 2-3 years time to vacate the premises. That is the only remedy available to you.
Even if you contested the case your chances of winning the case are not much.
