STATE OF KERALA vs P. P. HASSAN KOYA

The Supreme Court held that under the Land Acquisition Act, the Land Acquisition Officer must determine compensation for the extinction of all interests in the land, even if the Jenmi holder does not object to the quantum. The Court emphasized that the compensation for land with buildings must be assessed as a composite unit rather than separately, and the method of capitalization of net returns is appropriate for determining market value. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the trial court's approach to compensation calculation.
