    Summary of FA/387/2026 The High Court of Bombay (Aurangabad Bench) dismissed the Union of India's appeals challenging a Reference Court's land acquisition compensation awards for railway track construction. The court upheld the Reference Court's enhancement of compensation from Rs. 1,180 to Rs. 4,000-6,000 per unit based on a comparable sale deed from the same village, finding the rate reasonable and supported by evidence. The court also upheld statutory benefits including solatium and interest awarded under applicable law, directing disbursement of deposited amounts with accrued interest to landowners.
