    Case Summary: CA/9130/2023 The High Court of Bombay (Aurangabad Bench) dismissed the Union of India's appeals challenging land acquisition compensation rates for a railway project from Ahmednagar-Beed-Parli. The Reference Court had enhanced compensation from Rs. 900-1,500 per acre to Rs. 3,750-5,625 per acre based on comparable sale deeds from the same village. The court upheld this enhancement as reasonable, supported by credible evidence (Exhibit 27), and within the four-fold limit prescribed by government resolution. Statutory benefits under Section 23(1-A) were also upheld as lawful. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
