Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited vs M/S Nemichand Damodardas

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to enhance the compensation for land acquired by Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited, determining that the compensation should reflect the prevailing Ready Reckoner rates. The court found that the original compensation awarded was inadequate and supported the High Court's assessment of Rs. 174 per sq. ft. as just and fair. Consequently, the appeal by BSNL was dismissed, affirming the enhanced compensation amount.
