In Brief
The Supreme Court addressed whether the High Court should have remanded a land acquisition compensation matter to determine market value when identical acquisitions under the same notifications had already been settled. The Court held that once market value had been judicially determined and finalized through appellate dismissals in earlier proceedings involving the same acquisition notifications, that value should be applied without remand. The Court fixed market value at Rs. 65 per square yard and confirmed appellants were entitled to statutory benefits alongside compensation."
