Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of membership and allotment of plots under the Andhra Pradesh Cooperative Societies Act, 1964, specifically examining the bye-laws regarding nomination and transfer of shares upon a member's death. The Court held that the failure to notify the Society of a member's death and the subsequent allotment of a plot to another member was valid, as the original member did not fulfill the payment obligations required for confirmation of the allotment. The Court concluded that the allotment to Shri Anne Srinivas was lawful and upheld the decisions of the lower courts.
