Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's writ petition, affirming the resumption order under the Haryana Urban Development Authority Act due to the appellant's failure to comply with payment terms after being allotted a booth in 1996. The Court noted that despite partial payments, the appellant defaulted on the remaining dues and failed to respond to multiple notices issued by the authority. The Court emphasized the importance of adhering to contractual obligations in public auctions and held that the appellant's financial constraints did not excuse the non-compliance with the terms of the allotment.
