Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Division Bench's decision regarding the determination of compensation for land acquired under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, specifically referencing Section 4 and Section 18. The Court affirmed that unregistered sale agreements without dates could not be considered for compensation assessment, and distinguished the current case from previous rulings based on the proximity and context of the land in question. The Court ultimately dismissed the appeals, maintaining the compensation rate set by the High Court.
