    Case Summary: FA/585/2026 The High Court of Judicature at Bombay (Aurangabad Bench) dismissed the Union of India's appeals challenging the Reference Court's enhancement of land acquisition compensation. The court upheld the Reference Court's rate determination of Rs. 3,750-5,625 per acre (varying by land type) based on comparable sale deeds from the same village, finding the enhancement reasonable, market-aligned, and within four times the original award—thus compliant with government guidelines.
