Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed appeals concerning the Delhi Development Authority's allocation of flats under various housing schemes, particularly focusing on the Self Financing Scheme (SFS) as per the Delhi Development Act, 1957. The Court held that the terms and conditions for flat allocation, including the possibility of cost escalation and payment timelines, are binding on the applicants. The judgment clarified that failure to comply with payment deadlines could lead to cancellation of allotments, thereby reinforcing the Authority's right to enforce its terms.
