Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court allowed the appeal by the Kerala State Electricity Board, setting aside the Kerala High Court's dismissal of the Civil Revision Petition regarding enhanced compensation for land value diminution due to electricity line installation. The Court emphasized the need for a fresh consideration of compensation based on relevant factors such as land situs and the impact of high voltage lines, referencing prior judgments including The Kerala State Electricity Board v. Livisha and Land Acquisition Officer v. Kamadana Ramakrishna Rao. The matter was remitted to the High Court for reevaluation without costs.
