Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeals concerning the allotment of land under the Urban Land (Ceiling and Regulation) Act, 1976, specifically Section 20, which allows for exemptions from the ceiling limits. The Court held that the Baroda Municipal Corporation's resolution to sell land to Lokprakashan Limited was valid as it complied with the statutory requirements, and the exemption granted by the State was lawful. The appeals were dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision that upheld the land allotment process.
