Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal regarding the acquisition of a tenant-occupied building under the Maharashtra Housing & Area Development Act, 1976. The Court held that the structure in question is indeed part of City Survey No.56 and thus subject to acquisition, rejecting the appellant's claims based on Sections 2(7) and 2(9) of the Act regarding non-cess payable buildings. The Court emphasized the need for adherence to principles of natural justice, but ultimately upheld the acquisition process as valid.
