Headnote | Land Acquisition Act, 1894-Sec.4(1) Award of compensation-Where compensation to be detennined at the market value of the land on the basis of small sale transactions or at the potential value thereof.Appellant's lands were acquired and the Land Acquisition Officer determined the compensation at Rs. 5 per sq. metre. He relied on the appellant's stated purpose of usage of the land for staff quarters, the fact of a freeze on land development and used the purchase price of the appellant as a base added compound interest and a small increase to arrive at the said market value of Rs. 5 per sq. metre. On reference under S. 18 of the Act the District Judge enhanced it to Rs. 50 per sq. metre. The respondents moved the High Court against the order of enhancement. The High Court reversed the award and decree of the District Judge and confirmed the award of the Collector.The appellants challenged the High Court order in this Court contending that the lands possessed by them were of potential value as there was a rising trend in the market when land was sold out in small plots. They had brought four sale instances on record as a foundation for determining the market value of the lands in question. They argued that the High Court erred in excluding those sale instances as irrelevant.The respondents contended that the sale instances were small and a few of them were post-notification sales. Development and appreciation of land had been frozen to enable proper determination of the market value as the land was to be acquired for public purposes, therefore, there would be no potential buyers. As appellant himself had not purchased the property for sale to third parties the District Judge was not justified in relying on the sale instances to determine the market value. |
