Ghaziabad Development Authority vs Ramesh Chandra Pandiya

The Supreme Court addressed the dispute regarding the allotment of plots under the Uttar Pradesh Urban Planning and Development Act, 1973. The Court held that the cancellation of the original allotment was justified due to the respondent's failure to take possession and pay the required instalments as per the allotment terms. The Court affirmed the National Commission's decision to deliver the alternative plot at the original price but clarified that the interest rate awarded should align with the principles established in Haryana Urban Development Authority Vs. Darsh Kumar, (2005) 9 SCC 449, thus modifying the compensation aspects.
