Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the lease agreement between the Airport Authority of India (AAI) and the appellant regarding the Mumbai Airport, specifically concerning a parcel of land measuring 31,000 sq.m. The Court held that the AAI's obligation to demarcate this land, as per the interim order of the Bombay High Court in Suit No. 6846 of 1999, must be respected, thereby affirming that the land cannot be included in the lease until the legal dispute is resolved. The judgment emphasized the importance of adhering to existing court orders in property transactions under the Airports Authority of India Act, 1994.
