DELHI DEVELOPMENT AUTTHORITY vs ASHOK KUMAR BEHAL

The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the Delhi Development Authority's revised pricing for flats under the 'Registration Scheme on New Pattern - 1997'. The Court held that the Authority's increase in flat prices, based on revised land rates, was valid and did not contravene the original scheme's terms as outlined in Clauses 13 and 14. The Court overturned the High Court's decision that had struck down the revised rates, affirming that the Authority could adjust prices in accordance with prevailing market conditions.
