D.D.A. vs JOGINDER S. MONGA

The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the Delhi Development Authority's (DDA) determination of market value for nazul lands under the Delhi Development Act, 1957 and the Disposal of Developed Nazul Land Rules, 1981. The Court held that the DDA's fixation of market value was binding and that the heirs of the original sub-lessee were entitled to the agreed sale price without additional unearned increase charges. The judgment clarified the authority's powers in determining land value and upheld the validity of the sale agreement made by the heirs.
