    Case Summary: Shivaji Dhondu Nikam v. S.D.O. Land Acquisition (L.A.R. No. 65/2020) Decision: The court partly allowed the applicant's reference for enhanced land compensation, awarding Rs. 700/- per square meter instead of the originally awarded rate. The court found the Special Land Acquisition Officer's valuation method—based on outdated revenue assessments and ready-reckoner rates—inadequate, and rejected the applicant's claimed Rs. 1,000/- per sq. meter, applying a 65% development cost deduction. Enhanced compensation includes 30% solatium, 12% additional component, and interest at 9-15% per annum. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
