The Supreme Court upheld the enhancement of compensation for land acquisition under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, specifically referencing Section 4(1) and Section 18. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision to set the market value at Rs.1,90,000/- per acre based on prior judgments and sale deeds, emphasizing the importance of market trends and comparable sales in determining fair compensation. The Court concluded that the compensation awarded was just and reasonable, thereby dismissing the appeals against the High Court's ruling.
