K.B. DADDARAJJIAPPA & ORS. vs STATE OF KARNATAKA & ORS.

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision that the Government of Karnataka was entitled to recover amounts secured as aid under the Mysore State Aid to Industries Act, 1951, specifically through the procedure outlined in Section 19 of the Act. The Court clarified that the phrase 'all moneys payable under this Act' indicates the legislature's intent to allow recovery of any aid provided, not limited to amounts directly payable to the State. Thus, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the legality of the recovery process employed by the State government.
