Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the dispute over site No. 433 under the Bangalore Development Authority Act, specifically referencing Section 18 regarding land acquisition. The Court held that the appellant's title was valid as they purchased the site from the registered owner, Respondent No. 2, who had a possession certificate. The Court emphasized the importance of registered deeds and possession certificates in establishing ownership, ultimately dismissing the appeal against the Karnataka High Court's decision, thereby upholding the lower court's ruling.
