Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the MRTP Commission's order directing the Ghaziabad Development Authority (GDA) to deliver possession of a 90 sq. mtrs. plot to the respondent, finding that the cancellation of the allotment was arbitrary and constituted an 'unfair trade practice' under Section 36 of the MRTP Act. The Court affirmed that the respondent had suffered pecuniary losses due to the GDA's actions and that the GDA's claims regarding the lack of a specific allotment order were unfounded. Consequently, the appeal by the GDA was dismissed, reinforcing the MRTP Commission's directive.
