State Of Rajasthan & Ors vs Aanjaney Organic Herbal Pvt.Ltd

The Supreme Court addressed whether the transfer of land from a Scheduled Caste member to a juristic person is void under Section 42(b) of the Rajasthan Tenancy Act, 1955. The Court held that such a transfer is not prohibited as the term 'person' in the statute does not include juristic persons, affirming the High Court's interpretation in State of Rajasthan v. Indian Oil Corporation. Consequently, the Court upheld the legality of the land transfer and dismissed the appeal by the State of Rajasthan.
