Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed appeals concerning compensation under the Land Acquisition Act, specifically referencing Section 4 and Section 6. The Court upheld the High Court's decision to reduce compensation but modified it by granting an additional 10% increase for coconut and mango trees based on the quality of the claimants' groves. The Court affirmed the High Court's judgment with this modification, concluding that the claimants were entitled to fair compensation for their acquired land.
