HUDA vs RANJAN DHAMINA

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Punjab and Haryana High Court, confirming that the demand for an additional sum of Rs. 4,66,847/- by the defendants was illegal and invalid under the provisions of the Land Acquisition Act. The Court established that enhancement of the plot price could only occur under specific conditions outlined in the allotment letter, which were not met in this case. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's ruling in favor of the plaintiffs.
