Haji Yunus Haji Latif Aghadi And others vs Deputy Collector Land Acquisition And Sub Divisional Office Karjat — 15/2025

Court Decision Summary The court partially approved the land acquisition reference case under Section 28-A(3) of the Land Acquisition Act. The court determined that the claimants' agricultural land at Dahivli village, acquired on 18/01/1996 for the Mumbai-Pune highway project, deserves enhanced compensation of Rs. 600 per sq.mt. (instead of Rs. 5,000 per sq.mt. initially offered by the government). The court also awarded 12% annual interest from the notification date until the special officer's award, 30% solatium, and 9-15% interest on the enhanced amount as per statutory provisions, recognizing the land's development potential due to its proximity to major infrastructure and industrial zones.
