Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the High Court dismissing the appellant's writ petition against the cancellation of his allotment of a flat by the Chandigarh Housing Board due to concealment of facts regarding ownership of a flat in NOIDA. The Court emphasized that under Clause XI of the Chandigarh Housing Board (Allotment, Management and Sale of Tenements) Regulations, 1979, misrepresentation or suppression of facts leads to cancellation of allotment and forfeiture of deposits. The Court found that the appellant's failure to disclose ownership of the NOIDA flat rendered him ineligible for the allotment, affirming the Board's actions.
