In Brief
Arti Spinning Mills challenged the High Court's rejection of its review application for enhanced land compensation. The Supreme Court allowed the appeals and remanded to the High Court, which subsequently allowed the review and fixed compensation at Rs. 16,08,000 per acre—consistent with rates granted for adjoining property in a related case. However, the appellants forfeited statutory benefits for the 2411-day delay across both courts. The Court balanced equitable compensation treatment against consequences of procedural delay.
