Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to enhance compensation for land acquired under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, specifically referencing Section 4 and Section 18. The Court found that the High Court appropriately considered the potential value and future prospects of the land, ultimately determining compensation at Rs. 64,80,000 per acre. The appeal by the landholders was partly allowed, affirming the enhanced compensation while dismissing the State's cross appeals.
