    Case Summary: FA/2787/2025 The High Court of Bombay (Aurangabad Bench) dismissed the Union of India's appeal challenging a Reference Court's land acquisition compensation award. The Reference Court had enhanced compensation for irrigated/jirayat land from Rs. 980-1,180 per rupee to Rs. 6,000 per rupee, based on a comparable sale deed from the same village. The court upheld this enhancement as judicially reasonable, supported by credible evidence, and within permissible limits under Maharashtra government resolution allowing up to four-fold enhancement. 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.
