Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's writ petition regarding the allotment of a High Income Group flat, citing Clause XI of the Chandigarh Housing Board (Allotment, Management and Sale of Tenements) Regulations, 1979, which allows for cancellation of allotment due to misrepresentation or suppression of facts. The Court found that the appellant concealed ownership of a flat in NOIDA, rendering him ineligible for the allotment. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision and the Board's actions, including the forfeiture of the deposit and the refund of Rs. 8,06,441.
