Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the Haryana State Agricultural Marketing Board (Sale of Immovable Property) Rules 1997, particularly Rule 4, which mandates completion of construction within two years of allotment. The Court upheld the validity of the auction process and the terms of payment outlined in the auction notice and allotment letters, emphasizing that failure to comply with the payment schedule could lead to forfeiture of earnest money. The Court ruled in favor of the appellants, affirming the auction process and the conditions set forth by the Board.
