The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's Writ Petition challenging the additional demand for a residential plot under the Punjab Urban Estates (Development and Regulation) Act, 1964 and the Punjab Urban Estate (Sale of Sites) Rules, 1965. The Court found that the demand was not arbitrary or unreasonable, as it was made in accordance with statutory provisions. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the legality of the additional price demand and the High Court's reliance on precedent in Preeta Singh & Ors. Vs. Haryana Urban Development Authority.
